 WAVE-LENGTHS OF FRAUNHOFER LINES. 



177 



For convenience of reference the values of the wave-lengths corresponding to the Fraunhofer 

 lines usually designated by the letters in the column headed " index letters," are here tabulated 

 separately. The values are in ten millionths of a millimeter, on the supposition that the D line 

 value is 5S96.155. The table is for the most part taken from Rowland's table of standard wave- 

 lengths. 



* The two lines here given for A are stated by Rowland to be :^ the first, a line "beginning at the head of A, out- 

 side edge ; " the second, a " single line beginning at the tail of A." 



t The principal line in the head of B. 



t Chief line in the a group. _ , , , , . j j ^ 



See Table 163, Rowland's Solar Wave-lengths (foot of page) for correction to reduce these values to standard system 

 of wave-lengths, Table 160.
