Abstract
THE hyperfine structure of the resonance lines (7699 and 7665 A.) of potassium has been investigated by means of absorption in a potassium atomic ray. The lines were obtained in emission from a discharge tube containing neon at a pressure of a few millimetres, and potassium vapour at a pressure of less than one two thousandth of a millimetre; the tube was excited by means of external electrodes, and was of the type used by Jackson in previous investigations on the structures of resonance lines.
