A considerable number of minerals are known in varying degrees to be radio-active. Lists have been given by M. and Madame Curie and by Sir W. Crookes, Except in the case of pitchblende, little has been done to determine the nature of the radio-active constituents; or to decide whether any hitherto unknown radio-active body is present.
and that when m is even, | < pm | 2 = 0. The second pla reflection from the first plate, the fourth plate th at from the third, and so •on. The simplest case under this head is when 8 = ^ A, == A.A variation of the latter supposition leads to a verification of the general formulas worth a moment's notice. W e assume, as above, 8' = s'A, but leave $ open. Since e * m ' = ± 1, (9) and (10) become _ ei i k S _ e -hikS q -1 -7 7 / 6gxand these are of the form (39), if we suppose a = r f x> = The reflection m\ equal to | r | , as should evidently be the case, at least, when S' = 0.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
