Abstract
THE question of the homogeneity of argon has discussed by Lord Rayleigh and one of us in their memoir on Argon (Phil Trans., A, p. 236, 1895). But at that epoch the data were not sufficiently numerous to enable us to arrive at very definite conclusions. The discovery of helium and the analysis of its spectrum by Runge and Paschen (Sitzungsberichte d. Akad. d. Wissenschaften, pp.639 and 759, Berlin, 1895) lead to the thought that this body may be a mixture of two gases.
