    Notes: [Auszug] RECURRING to Hertz's equations for the field of the rectilinear vibrator, it appears to me that, while his conclusions are sound as regards the forces at points very distant from the vibrator, they require modification for the rest of the field. In fact, the principles upon which the question ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THE author explains generally the different apparatus used in electric lighting, and the broad princples of their working, using the " water-works" theory of the electric current, but at the same time carefully explaining that this is only done for the sake of convenience. An unfortunate mistake ...

The evidence for such a connection is ...
