Abstract
WORK in this laboratory on the conductivity of hexane at high steady fields has shown that measurements can be made at field-strengths far in excess of those previously reported. For gaps of 25 and 150 microns, it was possible to measure the conductivity up to stresses of 1,500 kV./cm. and 1,150 kV./cm. respectively.
