111 Tal)lL' XXI\\ and Fig. 13 it may 1)0 observed that the 

 separation of tlie ^^-coniponents is proportional to the magnetic 

 field, tliough that l)y King is a little larger. One half of the 

 separation of tlie outer //-components — the separation l^etween the 

 undisturbed and one of the displaced com])onents — is given in 

 Fig. 14 to prevent confusion, which sliows that the separation 

 curve is concave upward between 50()() and OlJOO gauss, but, if we 

 take King's point into consideration, it must go down again, 

 showing a wavy form. 



/ 5446*92 appears as a quadi-uplet in weak fields. TJie n- 

 ccmponents become very difïuse when the magnetic field is 

 increased, which may be considered as the result of complex 

 separation as observed by King. King giA'es 4 ^/-components in 

 his table, but only two sharp p -components are observed on n\y 

 plates, the specific separation being a little smaller between 5500 

 and 8000 gauss and a little larger above lOOOO gauss than King's 

 for the outer pair, as may be seen in Table XXVI. and Fig. 14.
