Abstract
DURING the past few years, it has been shown that the diamagnetic susceptibilities of ions in crystals are approximately additive, and their values are in fairly close agreement with values calculated theoretically from the wave-mechanical structures of free ions1. Attempts to interpret the experimental results in more detail have been handicapped by a lack of essential data, for although results are now available for many substances, some have been obtained for solutions and others for crystals, and the two are not directly comparable. With the view of obtaining more precise information for a particular group of crystals, we have studied the susceptibilities of the alkaline halides, using a method of measurement previously described2.
