Fleeting nuclei.—This brings the work to the main purposes of the present paper, viz, to compare the generation and decay of the nuclei produced by the X-rays when the density of ionizatiou or of electrification has different values. It was shown conclusively above that with strong radiation the nuclei persist for hours, and it follows from the foregoing paragraphs that for weak ionization they are fleet- ing. Hence there must be transitional conditions, and these are to be investigated, both for the production and for the decay of nuclei. With such an end in view a strong X-ray tube may be placed at different distances from the end of the fog chamber and the results referred to the nucleation within, or the same bulb in the efficient and the partially fatigued condition may be placed at a fixed distance near the apparatus. The second method is usually inseparable from the first. 44-.
