IN 1930 we reported elsewhere1 that when a condensed discharge is passed through a neon tube in which hydrogen appears as a trace of impurity, the Balmer series is seen remarkably well developed. We have been applying the same method for the extension of the Lyman series and have been able recently to get as far as the 20th member.
