Modern Theory Of Physical Phenomena Radio Activity Ions Electrons Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Science of Radio-Activity IN the following pages I have endeavoured to give a concise and popular account of the properties of the radio active elements and the theoretical conceptions which are introduced by the study of radio-active phenomena. This work, as its title indicates, does not claim to be more than an introduction to the subject, and no attempt has been made at exhaustive treatment. Following what has appeared to me to be the most lucid method of presenta tion, I have divided the subject into three parts: descrip tive, theoretical, and practical; the last being added in the hope that the comparatively simple experiments described may be of interest to those wishing to investi gate for themselves some of the remarkable properties of the radio-active elements.
