Excerpt: ...above I found it impossible to get a current of electricity to pass through the gas, however hot it might be, unless the electrodes were hot enough to glow. A current passing through the hot gas was immediately stopped by placing a large piece of cold platinum foil bi, tween the electrodes, even though a strong up-current of the hot gas was maintained to prevent the gas getting chilled by the cold foil. As soon as the foil began to glow, the current of electricity through the gas recommenced. This is one among many instances of the difficulty with which electricity passes from a gas to cold metal. I examined also the conductivities of several metallic vapours, including those of sodium, potassium, thallium, cadmium, bismuth, lead, aluminium, magnesium, tin, zinc, silver, and mercury. Of these the vapours of tin, mercury, and thallium hardly seemed to conduct at all; the vapours of the other metals conducted well, their conductivities being comparable with those of the dissociable gases. Although mercury vapour does not conduct when heated, yet when exposed to Rontgen rays it conducts with great facility, and indeed to a greater extent than almost any other gas. Conduction by Flames. The gases which arise from flames conduct electricity, and they retain this power for some minutes after they have left the flame.1 The laws of conduction through flame gases are in many respects analogous to those of conduction through gases exposed to the Rontgen rays. Thus Giese ' (who was the first to suggest that electricity was carried through gases by the movement of oppositely charged ions) has shown that if the flame gases, on their way to the place where their eonductivity is tested, are traversed by an electric current, the conductivity is very much...

Thomson and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1883, Joseph John Thomson's fascinating treatise explores the subject of 'vortex rings'. A vortex ring, also known as 'a toroidal vortex', is a torus-shaped vortex existing within a fluid or gas where the fluid spins along an imaginary axis line that creates a closed loop. Sir Joseph John Thomson (1856 - 1940) was an English physicist and Nobel Laureate in Physics. He is most famous for having discovered and identified the electron, and for discovering the first subatomic particle. He also proved that cathode rays were composed of electrons. In 1906, Thomson was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for his contributions to the study of the conduction of electricity in gases. Contents include: "Momentum Of A System Of Circular Vortex Rings," "Moment Of Momentum Of The System," "Kinetic Energy Of The System," "Expression For The Kinetic Energy Of A Number Of Circular Vortex," "Rings Moving Inside A Closed Vessel," "Theory Of The Single Vortex Ring," "Expression For The Velocity Parallel To The Axis," "Due To An Approximately," "Circular Vortex Ring," etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conduction of Electricity Through Gases I have endeavoured in this work to develop the view that the conduction of electricity through gases is due to the presence in the gas of small particles charged with electricity, called ions, which under the influence of electric forces move from one part of the gas to another. My object has been to show how the various phenomena exhibited when electricity passes through gases can be coordinated by this conception rather than to attempt to give a complete account of the very numerous investigations which have been made on the electrical properties of gases; I have therefore confined myself for the most part to those phenomena which furnish results sufficiently precise to serve as a test of the truth of this theory. The book contains the subject-matter of lectures given at the Cavendish Laboratory where a good deal of attention has been paid to the subject and where a considerable number of physicists are working at it. The study of the electrical properties of gases seems to offer the most promising field for investigating the Nature of Electricity and the Constitution of Matter, for thanks to the Kinetic Theory of Gases our conceptions of the processes other than electrical which occur in gases are much more vivid and definite than they are for liquids or solids; in consequence of this the subject has advanced very rapidly and I think it may now fairly be claimed that our knowledge of and insight into the processes going on when electricity passes through a gas is greater than it is in the case either of solids or liquids.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conduction of Electricity Through Gases With the discovery and study of Cathode rays, Rontgen rays and Radio-activity a new era has begun in Physics, in which the electrical properties of gases have played and will play a most important part; the bearing of these discoveries on the problems of the Constitution of Matter and the Nature of Electricity is in most intimate connection with the view we take Of the processes which go on when electricity passes through a gas. I have endeavoured to show that the view taken in this volume is supported by a large amount of direct evidence and that it affords a direct and simple explanation of the electrical properties Of gases. The pressure of my other duties has caused this book to be a considerable time in passing through the press, and some important investigations have been published since the sheets relating to the subjects investigated were struck off. I have given a short account of these in a few Supplementary Notes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
