... uch low frequencies, but such very low frequencies NATURE AND DIFFERENT FORMS OF RADIATION. 15 have been observed in the radiations of bodies of very low tem- perature, as liquid air, or in the moon's rays. 7. Very much longer waves, however, are the electric waves. They are used in wireless telegraphy, etc. I here connect (Fig. 12) FIG. 12. the condenser C of the apparatus which I used for operating the ultra-violet arc, to a spark gap Gv of which the one side is con- nected to ground Bv the other side to a ver ...

... an there is to assume the alternating-current wave to be a motion of matter. We know that nothing material is moving in the alternating- current or voltage wave, and if the wave theory of light had been propounded after the world had become familiar with electric waves^ — that is, with waves or periodic phenom- ena which are not wave motions of matter^ — the error of considering the light wave as a wave motion would never have been made and the ether theory would never have been propounded. Hence the logical error whi ...

LECTURE II. RELATION OF BODIES TO RADIATION. 9. For convenience, the total range of known radiations can be divided into two classes, the electric waves and the light waves, which are separated from each other by the blank space in the middle of the spectrum of radiation (Fig. 14). Under light waves we here include also the invisible ultra-red radiation and the ultra-violet radiation and the non-refrangib ...
