Abstract
THE recent researches of Prof. Marey on the electric discharge of the torpedo have been presented by the author in an extended memoir published last year.1 We propose to present to our readers the main conclusions reached by M. Marey, and the experimental demonstrations on which the principal of these are based. But before entering into details of the experiments let us indicate summarily the processes employed by M. Marey.
