Página 74 - ... an incontestibly stiller image than when still air was used. As a further test, a series of artificial double stars was now provided, and the concave mirror, acting both as collimator and objective, brought the images to focus, where they were examined by an eyepiece. With the stillest air obtainable, the images were not sharp and only the coarsest doubles were resolvable. Then the blower was started and the definition immediately became sharp. Violently stirring the air in the tube, then, eliminates...
Página 274 - Since the temperatures of a block and its enclosing magma are practically identical, the final step in deciding on their relative densities in depth is taken, if it can be shown what is the relative compression suffered by the solid and liquid. Again we must have recourse to the valuable experiments of Barus as those, of any known to the writer, most nearly related to the problem at issue. He concludes, as a net result of his investigations, that ' the relation of the meltingpoint to pressure in...
Página 74 - boiling " of the image is due to air without the tube, but a not unimportant part to the air within it; and in the preliminary experiments the air, kept still in the tube by treating it with the ordinary precautions, was found •to have little effect on the ordinary "boiling" of the image, which so seriously prejudices the definition.

Página 275 - But his diabase fusion curve demonstrates that the thermal expansibility of the liquid rock is about 1-9 times as great as that of the solid rock. Thus a block of cold, solid gabbro immersed in a deep-seated molten magma of the same chemical composition, would be less condensed by the pressure than the molten rock, but the effect on relative densities would be partly compensated by any superheating of the magma.
