Lines 8 and 31 not included in this diagram (cf. Diagram 6, fig, 4). The characteristics of lines falling into the second part of Group I. (Group Ib.) are :— 1. Greater broadening. [Many are described as moderately broadened, some as greatly broadened, though several are described as slightly broadened.] 2. Nebulous at one atmosphere or nebulous at 10 atmospheres. 3. The reversed lines are less symmetrical. 4. Tendency to weaken under pressure. The characteristics of the lines falling into Group II. are :—• 1. Great broadening. 2. Their unsymmetrical appearance under pressure. They are all broadened greatly to the red side. 3. None are reversed under pressure. -14 * -14 242 DR. W.
