Abstract
THE short notice which I published of my “Discovery of a method of obtaining thermographs of the isothermal lines of the solar disc” was so concisely written that the precautions which are necessary in this new method of research wrere omitted; but as the republication of my paper in NATURE (vol. xii. p. 301) and in other European journals may induce those engaged in astronomical physics to try the process, I think it proper that I should call attention to some very important experimental conditions to be fulfilled before accurate results can be reached.
