It could thus be illuminated either from the front, as shown above, or from behind by light transmitted through the slot. The latter arrangement was employed especially in the study of the absorption spectrum. When the substance, excited to fluorescence in the manner already described, was gradually cooled to the temperature of liquid air and the spectrum was observed through the Hilger spectrometer, the fol- lowing changes were noted: (1) The bands become narrower and better defined until at the temperature of liquid air they correspond in appearance to the usual line-like bands characteristic of the fluorescence spectra of the uranyl salts at low temperatures. (2) As the temperature falls the bands are gradually resolved into doublets. One component of each doublet becomes rapidly brighter, while the other frequently becomes more indistinct and sometimes disappears. The general effect is that of a shift toward the violet.
