Abstract
IN their recent paper on the afterglow in actfve nitrogen, Cario and Stille1 have doubted the reality of the production in the nitrogen afterglow of the N2 + first-negative bands and those bands of the N2 first-positive system which originate on vibrational levels higher than = 14. It is suggested that my results were due to an accidental superposition of light from the exciting discharge on that of the afterglow.
