Synopsis

This book offers a comprehensive collection of notes and technical descriptions on the use of wave lengths, spectrographs, and spectrum tubes. It begins with notes on the standard wave lengths of cadmium, discussing several secondary wave-length standards and frequency differences between corresponding pairs of lines in subordinate series to test their accuracy. It also delves into the design of a “quartz rock salt spectrograph” developed for photographing interference phenomena in the ultraviolet spectrum, and describes the characteristics of a concave grating mounting that generates stigmatic spectral images. An additional topic covered by this book is the process of preparing spectrum tubes commonly used in optical demonstrations, testing, and research, providing instructions and suggestions for filling tubes with various gases such as hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, helium, neon, and argon. The author includes helpful information on obtaining pure gas spectra by removing common contaminants and ensuring proper electrode selection for each gas.
