The followingthree columns give the ratio of the ionization produced bymultiple reflexion to the ionization produced by the incidentrays for lead, copper, and carbon respectively. The last Ffc. 2700 3600 4500 Hp in gauss cm. 8100 column gives the ratio of the values for lead and copper asobtained from the smooth curves. This ratio is roughlyconstant, indicating that the changes of reflexion with thevelocity are proportional for the two substances. The ex-periments with carbon were difficult on account of its weakreflecting power, and the results are consequently subject togreater errors than in the case of the other two experiments with an angle of 30° for the inclination ofthe ionization vessel with the horizontal were tried with leadonly, and the results were materially the same as for 45°inclination. For the very slowly and very rapidly moving/3-particles the experimental errors are greater on accountof the fact that the /3-ray effect is small compared withthe 7-ray effect, since the distribution of the number of/3-particles with the velocity gives a maximum and decreasesqui
