Columns 6 and 7 of the above table are obtained from the valuesgiven by this plot. On account of the lag (in this case a lead) the FooU) The Marvin Pyrheliometer 617 observed value of AR/At in the interval o to 10 seconds is far toogreat. After the first 10 seconds, however, the observations lievery satisfactorily on the straight line of Fig. 4. The coefficientE determined by the slope of the straight line is E = Fromcolumns 2 and 3 it is seen that the heating curve is similar in typeto the cooling curve as demanded by the theory developed inSection IV. This series was picked at random from a large num-ber. Some of the series obtained showed exact agreement of theheating and cooling curves; others showed somewhat pooreragreement than the example cited. Since every point on thecooling curve exce
