nother invar rod L is screwed to K. Onthe end of L is screwed a microscope slide. The right screw-end cap has asmall lens mounted on it. Set up the slide A to reflect sodium light, view withthe microscope Mi the Newtons rings formed between S and the lens surface. The micrometer scale is read for every 50 rings passing the cross-wires(the length traversed is thus 14*73 /a, taking X = 0*589 /u). The interfering surfaces are never more than 200 half wave-lengthsapart—so that the rings are quite clear always. Also, as the surfaces are sonear, the number 0*589 fi may be taken without considering the exact valuesfor the Di and D2 sodium lines. As soon as 200 bands have been read, the left screw is advanced to bringthe interfering surfaces into contact again. Then proceed as before. Curve II is the result, in which the periodic error of Curve I has vanished.Curves I and II refer to position 25—26 mm. on the right screw. 354 Dr. P, E. Shaw.
