HohkuccJit radiometer (Fig. 149) The index is a tinted celluloid band. Thereaction pastilles are a platino-barium cya-nide compound 5 millimeters in diameter. Theestimation is made by placing an unexposedhalf pastille under the colored celluloid band injuxtaposition to the half pastille which hasbeen exposed to the x-ray. Both these halfpastilles are moved up and down until the halfdiscolored by exposure matches the tint of theimexposed half moving under the colored cel-luloid. The instrument is calibrated for fourvarieties of pastilles. 108 HAMPSONS METHOD. Fig. 149.—Holzknecht radiometer. C.
