INTRODUCTION.

§ 13. Spectroscopic Observations in the Year 1880.

The spectroscope used for these observations was mounted on the South-eastequatoreal, the object-glass of which (made by Merz and Son of Munich) has a,clear aperture of 12'8 inches, with a focal length of about 17"- 10in-

This section contains :—Observations of Solar Prominences ; Observations of theSpectrum of a Sun Spot j Measures of Displacement of Lines in the Spectra ofStars, Moon and Planets ; Experimental Observations of the Displacement of Lines inthe Spectra of Stars made with the Reversion Apparatus of the Oxford ReversionSpectroscope ; Collected Results for Motions in the line of Sight and for the Rotationof Jupiter ; and Observations of the Spectra of 51 Schjellerup, Nova Orionis, andComets e 1885 and/1880.

For the observations of solar prominences, the Greenwich Civil Times, commencingat Greenwich mean midnight and reckoning from 0 to 24 hours, are given ; andthe position-angle from the Sun's axis of the two extremities of each prominence,tofether with its height in seconds of arc. The Sun's image was always placedcentrally with respect to the position-circle, a radial excentricity being given to thespectroscope, so that the slit swept round the Sun's limb.

The position-angles have been first corrected for index-error of the position-circle,which is determined at the time of observation.

The method employed for this purpose has been to set the position-circle to 90°plus the approximate index-error, so that the slit points approximately E. and W.,and to move the telescope by the slo\v motions until either the north or the southlimb of the Sun just comes into the middle of the field. The position-circle is thenread, and the spectroscope rotated through 180°, the telescope remaining rigidlyclamped, and as the diurnal motion brings the Sun up to the slit again, the limbpreviously observed is again brought to the centre of the field by means of therotation of the spectroscope. The position-circle is read a second time, and themean of the two readings, corrected for the inclination of the Sun's path, is takenas the zero of the position-circle.

The corrected position-angles have then been converted into Heliographie N. P. D.by applying as a correction the position-angle of the Sun's north pole, taken fromthe " Auxiliary Tables for determining the Angle of Position of the Sun's Axis,and the Latitude and Longitude of the Earth referred to the Sun's Equator," byWarren De La Rue, F.R.S.

The heights of the bright lines seen in the prominences or chromosphere wereread off on a pearl scale, divided to O'OOS inch (corresponding to 2"'4), and carriedby the micrometer of the spectroscope. Other particulars are given in the note at thehead of this section.

The measures of displacement of lines in the spectra of stars were made with amicrometer in the viewing telescope of the "Half-prism" Spectroscope. Theeye-piece used gives a magnifying power of 14. Estimations of the displacement, interms of the apparent breadth of the bright comparison-line, were also made ; thebreadth corresponding to any given width of slit being determined by a carefulobservation under similar conditions. lreTi of the screw for opening the slitcorresponds to O'Ol inch, or 10". It has not been thought necessary to give indetail all these particulars of the reductions. The values used in each case may beinferred from the observed motion, which is the algebraic sum of the concludedmotion and of the Earth's motion. A displacement of one tenth-metre correspondsat D to a motion of 31-7 miles per second, at b to a motion of 36*1 miles, and at Fto a motion of 38*4 miles. For comparison with the spectrum of hydrogen or otherchemical element, an image of the vacuum tube or electrodes is formed on the slit,by means of a transparent plate of glass placed at an angle of 45° with the axis ofthe collimator, in connexion with a collimating lens, so that the cone of raysfrom the comparison-light fills the whole of the object-glass of the collimator.

Whenever the star-line was sufficiently distinct to allow of its being seen at thesame time as the bright comparison-line, a direct comparison of the two was made ;in other cases the bright line was compared with the pointer of the micrometerwhich had just previously been placed on the star-line, giving an indirectcomparison.

The reading of the position-circle is given, as it is conceivable that the resultsmight be affected by the position of the spectroscope. The slit lies north and southwhen the reading is 5°.

The observations of displacement made with the reversion apparatus of the OxfordReversion Spectroscope were confined to estimations, no actual micrometric measuresbeing made, for reasons given in the account of the observations. The breadth of the

bright comparison-line was carefully measured (with the same width of slit) with themicrometer and viewing telescope of the " Half-prism" Spectroscope, and the equivalentdisplacement in wave-length and motion in miles per second were found in the usualmanner. The reversing apparatus in this spectroscope consists of two totally reflectingreversion prisms placed between the train of dispersing prisms and the viewingtelescope. The refracting edges of the trains of prisms being supposed for convenienceof description to be vertical, the lower half of the pencil falls on the lower reversionprism and is reversed end for end by reflexion, the edge of the prism being perpendicularto the length of the spectrum, and the upper half falls on the upper reversionprism pkced with its edge parallel to the length of the spectrum, so that the upperhalf of the spectrum, after reflexion, is reversed top for bottom. Thus, after passingthrough this reversing apparatus, the red is on the right in one half of the spectrumand on the left in the other. By turning the upper prism round an axis parallel toits edge, the spectra may be superposed or separated to any required distance in adirection perpendicular to their length. By turning the lower prism about an axisparallel to its edge or by turning the train of dispersing prisms, any given line in thereversed half may be brought into coincidence with the corresponding line in theother half. For these adjustments suitable screws are provided.

In practice the two spectra were adjusted so as to be just in contact, and the broadF lines in the two spectra brought into coincidence by either of the methods mentioned.The light from a hydrogen vacuum tube was then flashed in, and the amount ofdisplacement of the two images of the bright H/3 line was estimated in terms of thebreadth of either.

With regard to the observations of the spectra of 51 Schjellerup, Nova Orionis,and the Comets, it ia sufficient to remark that curves have been laid down in theusual manner, connecting micrometer readings and wave-lengths for both the" Half-prism " and Single-prism Spectroscopes, and that the value of a revolution ofthe micrometer in tenthmetres of wave-length has been inferred from these for thepoint of the spectrum measured. The tabular wave-lengtha of comparison-lineshave been taken from Angstrom's Spectre Normal du Soleil.

•vi INTRODUCTION то GREENWICH SPECTROSCOPÏC AND PHOTOGRAPHIC RESULTS, 1886.

The photographs of the Greenwich series were taken with the Dallmeyer Photo-heliograph returned from the Transit of Venus expedition to New Zealand, which,as now adapted, gives a solar image of 8 inches diameter on the photographic plate.

Bromo-iodized gelatine dry plates with alkaline development have been regularlyused throughout the year.

The Indian photographs, which have been forwarded by the Solar PhysicsCommittee to till the gaps in the Greenwich series, were taken under thesuperintendence of J. B. N. Hennessey, F.K.S., Deputy Superintendent, Trigono-metrical Survey of India, with a Dallmeyer photoheliograph giving an image of theSun nearly 8 inches in diameter. In the process adopted at Dehra Dun bromo-iodizedcollodion has been used in connexion with iron development.

The Mauritius photographs were taken under the superintendence of Dr. C.Meldrum, Director of the Royal Alfred Observatory, Mauritius, with a Dallmeyerphotoheliograph, giving an image of the Sun about 8 inches in diameter. At theMauritius Observatory both wet and dry processes have been used, bromo-iodizedcollodion having been used with iron development, and bromo-iodized gelatine dryplates with alkaline development.

Photographs of the Sun were taken at Greenwich on 199 days and Indianphotographs on 128 days with Mauritius photographs on 36 days have been receivedfrom the Solar Physics Committee to complete the total of 363 days for which thereare either Greenwich, Indian, or Mauritius photographs of the Sun available formeasurement in 1886.

The first column on each page contains the Greenwich Civil Time at which eachphotograph was taken, expressed by the day of the year and decimals of a day,reckoning from Greenwich mean midnight January Id. Oh., and also by the dayof the month (civil reckoning), which latter is placed opposite the total area ofSpots and Faculse for the day. The photographs taken in India are distinguishedby the letter I, and those taken in Mauritius by the letter M.

The second column contains the initials of the two persons measuring thephotograph ; the initial on the left being that of the person who measured thephotograph on the left of the centre of the measuring instrument, and that on theright being that of the person who measured on the right of the centre.

The following are the signatures of those persons who measured the photographslor the year 1886 :—

The third column gives the No. of the group, and the letter for the spot. Thegroups are numbered in the order of their appearance.

The next two columns give the Distance from the Centre of the Sun in terms ofthe Sun's Radius, and the Position-Angle from the Sun's Axis, reckoned from theSun's North Pole in the direction щ /, s, p, both results being corrected for theeffects of astronomical refraction. .

'The measures of the photographs were made with a large position-micrometer»specially constructed by Messrs. Troughton and Simms for the measurement ofphotographs of the Sun up to 12 inches in diameter. In this micrometer thephotograph is held with its film-side uppermost on three pillars fixed on a circularplate, which can be turned through a small angle, about a pivot in its circumference,by means of a screw and antagonistic spring acting at the opposite extremity of thediameter. The pivot of this plate is mounted on the circumference of anothercircular plate, which can be turned by screw-action about a pivot in its circum-ference, 90° distant from that of the upper plate, this pivot being mounted on acircular plate with position-circle which rotates about its centre. By this meanssmall movements in two directions at right angles to each other can be readilygiven, and the photograph can be accurately centred with respect to the position-circle.When this has been done, a positive eye-piece, having at its focus a glass diaphragmruled with cross-lines into squares, with sides of one-hundredth of an inch (formeasurement of areas), is moved along a slide diametrically across the photograph,the diaphragm being nearly in contact with the photographic film, so that parallax isavoided. The distance of a spot or facula from the centre of the Sun is read offby means of a scale and vernier to 1-250th of an inch (corresponding to O'OOl of theSun's radius for photographs having a solar diameter of 8 inches). The position-angle is read off on a large position-circle which rotates with the photographic plate.The photograph is illuminated by diffused light reflected from white paper placedat an angle of 45° between the photograph and the plate below.

The following is the process of measurement of a photograph :—By means of thescrews attached to the plates carrying the pillars which hold the photograph, theimage of the Sun is centred as accurately as possible by rotation. The position-circle is then set to the readings 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270° m succession, and the scalereadings taken for the two limbs. The scale being so adjusted that its zero coincideswith the centre of rotation of the position-circle, the mean of. the eight readings forthe limb gives the mean radius of the Sun directly.

viii INTRODUCTION то GREENWICH SPECTKOSCOPIC AND PHOTOGRAPHIC RESULTS, 1886.

At the principal focus of the photoheliograph are two cross-wires which serve todetermine the zero of position-angles on the photograph.

The zero of the Dallmeyer Photoheliograph, employed at Greenwich, has beendetermined throughout 1886 by the measurement of a plate which had been exposed tothe Sun's rays twice, with an interval of about 115 seconds between the two expo-sures, the instrument being firmly clamped. Two images of the Sun, overlapping eachother by a little more than the fifth part of the Sun's diameter, were therefore producedupon the plate, and the exposures having been so given that the line joining thecusps passed through the centre of the plate, it was easy to measure with the position-micrometer the inclination of the wires of the photoheliograph to the Sun's path, and asmall correction for the inclination of the Sun's path was then applied. The followingtable gives the correction for zero of position of the photoheliograph for the mean ofthe two wires as thus determined :—

MEASURES OF PHOTOGIIAPHS OF THE SUN. ix

It was found on October 4 that thé tube to which the wire-frame is attached hadbecome loose, and readily permitted a small motion of the wire-frame. The tube andwire-frame were firmly fixed in their places on October 5, before any photographswere taken.

In the use at Greenwich of the Dallmeyer Photoheliograph the position-circlehas usually been set to some convenient reading near that for zero, so that the wiresare respectively very nearly parallel and perpendicular to the circle of declination, anda correction for zero of position of the photoheliograph for the mean of the two wireshas been applied to the zero of the position-circle of the micrometer. The readings ofthe position-circle in 1886 have been as follows :—

From 1886, January 1 . . . 355°'6October 1 . . . 855°-7November 16 - - - 356°'4

The correction for zero of'position of the photoheliograph adopted for any date hasbeen the mean of the determinations of that zero made next before and next after thatdate. The zero of the position:circle of the micrometer has been determined from thereadings of the position-circle for the four extremities of the two wires. The resultingcombined correction is applied to all position-circle readings for spots and faculœ, so as.to give true position-angles.

In the use of the Photoheliographs at Dehra Dun and in Mauritius the position-circle has always been set to the zero as determined by allowing the diurnal motion tocarry a spot or the Sun's limb along the horizontal wire, and the accuracy of theadjustment has been tested at short intervals. No correction for zero of the photo-heliograph has therefore been applied for the reduction of the photographs taken inIndia or1 in Mauritius.

The unconnected distance from the Sun's centre for spots and faculœ is read offdirectly to l*250th of an inch by menns of a scale and vernier, the zero of the scale ofthe new micrometer being adjusted to coincide with the centre of the instrument.

Two sets of measures of the Sun's limb and of spots and faculté on each photographhave been taken and the mean of the two sets adopted.

No correction has been applied to the photographs on account of distortion.

The correction for the effect of refraction has been thus found, the Sun's imagebeing assumed to be sensibly an ellipse. The refraction being sensibly с tan г where

с = sin Ы"'5 = дщ nearly, and z is the apparent zenith distance, we shall have—

Resolving this along and perpendicular to the radius vector r,and putting v for the position-angle of the vertex, we have for 8 r and 8 0, thecorrections to radius vector and position-angle for the effect of refraction—

The quantity 8 r thus found is the correction, on the supposition that ahorizontal diameter of the Sun is taken as the scale. But, as the mean of twodiameters at right angles has been used, the scale itself requires the correction*T> . 4. 2 T> i i l + cos2(00— v) . l + cos2(0„ + 90o— v) \ • , -r, , .,« R = -f c. tan2 z x R x \\ — «p-2 -+— Чг1 '- \= + £ c R . tan" г,

The position-angle of the Vertex v is readily taken from a globe.

The distance from centre in terms of the Sun's radius given in the fourth columnis then readily found by dividing the measured distance r0, as corrected for refraction,by the measured mean radius of the Sun, R ; and the Position-Angle from the Sun'sAxis given in the fifth column is obtained by applying to the Position-Angle (fromthe N. point) corrested for refraction the Position-Angle of the Sun's Axis derivedfrom the " Auxiliary Tables for determining the Angle of Position of the Sun's Axis,and the Latitude and Longitude of the Earth referred to the Sun's Equator," byWarren De La Rue, F.R.S.

The sixth and seventh columns give the heliographic longitude and latitude of thespot, which are thus computed.* Let r be the measured distance of a spot from thecentre of the Sun's apparent disc, JÍ the measured radius of the Sun on the photograph,(/j?) the tabular semidiameter of the Sun in arc, and p, p' the angular distances of a

spot from the centre of the apparent disk as viewed from the Sun's centre and from theEarth respectively. Then we have —

тP = -ft (•#) ; and sin (p + p'} = -д,

whence p = sin"1 -5— p.

Log sin p and log cos p as computed from this formula are given in " Tables for theReduction of Sokr Observations No. 2," by Warren De La Rue, F.R.S. Then, if D,X are the heliographic latitudes of the Earth and the Spot respectively, referred to theSun's Equator, and L, l the heliographic longitudes reckoned from the ascending nodeof the Sun's Equator on the ecliptic, and x the position-angle from the Sun's axis, wehave by the ordinary equations of spherical trigonometry —

sin Л — cos p sin D + sin /o cos D cos x

sin (L — /) = sin x sin P sec X.

The quantities L and D are derived from Warren De La Rue's Auxiliary Tablesbefore referred to, in the computation of which the following formula have beenused —

tan L = cos I tan (© — N)sin D = sin I sin (© — N)

where I is the inclination of the Sun's Equator to the ecliptic, N the longitude of theascending node, and © the longitude of the Sun.

The position-angle x is given by the formula —

X = P + G + H

where P is the position-angle from the north point of the Sun, and G and H twoauxiliary angles given by the formulae —

tan G = tan ш cos 0tan H = tan I cos ( 0 — N)

where ш is the obliquity of the ecliptic.

It will be seen that G is the inclination of two planes through the line joining thecentres of the Earth and Sun passing through the poles of the Earth and of theecliptic respectively, and that H is the inclination of two planes through the same lineand the poles of the -Sun and of the ecliptic. The values assumed for I, N, w in thecomputation of the Tables are 7° 15', 74°, and 23° 27Л5 respectively.

The Heliographic Longitude of the Spot is found from /, the Heliographic Longitudefrom Node, by subtracting the Reduction to Prime Meridian, which is the Longitude

of the Node at the epoch of the photograph, referred to the assumed Prime Meridian,the latter being the meridian which passed through the ascending node at the epoch1854P0. The period of rotation assumed is 25*38 days.

The measures of areas given in the last three columns were made with a glassdiaphragm ruled into squares, with sides of one hundredth of an inch, and placednearly in contact with the photpgraphic film. The integral number of squares andparts of a square contained in the area of a spot or facula was estimated by theobserver, two independent sets of measures being made by two observers. The mean ofthe two sets of measures has been taken for each photograph. The factor for convertingthe areas, as measured in ten-thousandths of a square inch, into millionths of theSun's visible hemisphere, allowing for the effect of foreshortening, has been inferredby means of a table of double entry, giving the equivalent of one square for differentvalues of the Sun's radius, and for different distances of the spot or facula from theSun's centre, as measured by means of the position-micrometer.

The individual spots in a group have in some cases not been measured separately,but combined into a cluster of two or three small spots close together, the position ofthe centre of gravity and the aggregate area of the cluster being given. The actualnumber of individual spots is usually stated in the Notes.

§ 15. Ledgers of Areas and Positions of Spot-groups upon the Surfs Disk deduced fromthe measurement of the Solar photographs for each day in the year 1886.

In these Ledgers the daily results for each group are collected together from themeasures of the individual spots and given in a condensed form. The first columngives for each day, on which the group was observed, the Greenwich civil time atwhich each photograph was taken, expressed by the day of the month.(civil reckoning)and the decimals of a day reckoning from Greenwich mean midnight. The secondand third columns give the sums, for each day, of the projected areas of all theumbra and whole spots comprised in the group, the projected area being the area asit is measured upon the photograph, unconnected for foreshortening, and expressed inmillionths of the Sun's apparent disk. The fourth and fifth columns give the sumsfor each day of the areas of all the umbra and whole spots comprised in the group,corrected for foreshortening, and expressed in millionths of the Sun's visible hemis-phere. The sixth and seventh columns give the mean longitude and latitude of thegroup, found by multiplying the longitude and latitude of each separately measuredcomponent of the group by its area, and dividing the sum of the products by thesum of the areas. The last column gives the mean longitude of the group from the"entrai meridian, and is found by subtracting the longitude of the centre of the disk

POSITION-ANGLES AND HEIGHTS OF SOLAR PROMINENCES, OBSERVED WITH THE SPECTROSCOPE, AND OBSERVATIONS

POSITION-ANGLES and HEIGHTS of SOLAR PROMINENCES, observed with the SPECTROSCOPE, and OBSERVATIONS of BRIGHTLINES in their SPECTRA, made at the ROYAL OBSERVATORY, GREENWICH, in the Year 1886.

Civil Time commencing at Greenwich Mean Midnight and counting from о to 24 hours is used throughout.

Note.—The position-angles reckoned from the north pole of the Sun's axis in the direction N., E., S., W., N., are given for the twoextremities of the prominence.

The extreme height in seconds of arc is given for each prominence. Where the estimated brightness of any of the brightlines is given, the average brightness of the line has been estimated in terms of the brightness of the corresponding part of thesolar spectrum. The lines are usually fainter at the extremity than at the base. Where the estimated breadth is given, theaverage breadth of the line has been estimated in terms of the breadth of the corresponding dark line in the solar spectrum,except in the case of the bright line D3, the breadth of which is estimated in terms of the dark line C. The bright lines areusually narrower at the extremity than at the base. On each occasion the entire limb of the Sun was examined first on theС line only, and the heights and position-angles of the prominences were determined. If possible a second examination of theentire limb was then made in which the entire spectrum from В to F was examined at each prominence. The first time given forany prominence is the time when it was first seen ; the second time, the time of the second examination.

The " Half-prism " Spectroscope with a train of two " half-prisms " was used throughout. For viewing the prominences andchromosphere the spectroscope is reversed end for end, the slit and eyepiece being interchanged, so that the pencil is incidenton the oblique face and emerges at the perpendicular face of each " half-prism." Thus the breadth of the spectrum-lines,considered as monochromatic images of the slit, is diminished, and greater purity of spectrum is obtained. In order to view aprominence in its just proportions, the breadth can be afterwards magnified by means of a small "half-prism" (direct-vision)placed between the eyepiece and the eye.

A displacement of ï tenth-metre corresponds to a motion in the line of sight of 28-4 miles per second for the С line, of36-1 miles for the Ъ lines, and of 38-4 miles for the F line.Observer M.

The limb of the sun was unsteady, makingobservation difficult. On all the three fore-going prominences neither the D nor Ъ linescould be seen distinctly reversed, probably onaccount of the white haze in which thesun was involved, and the unsteadiness ofthe limb ; yet these dark lines of the skyspectrum grew faint close to the sun's limb.1474 K was seen distinctly reversed onthe second prominence ; on the two othersit was not actually reversed, but the darkline of the sky spectrum all but disappearedclose to the limb.

OBSERVATION of the SPIÎCTRUM of a Sun Spot made at the ROYAL OBSERVATORY,GREENWICH, in the Year 1886.

SPOT-GROUP, No. 1880.1886, May 6.

A fine group of spots was seen near the centre of the sun, and these, as examined on the С and F lines, showed aremarkable uprush of bright hydrogen. The F line in particular was reversed in places scattered over the entirearea of the group, but it was especially brilliant over the principal spot of the group. Over the nucleus of this spotthe F line was greatly broadened, being quite three times its usual breadth, and being seen both as a dark and as abright line. The dark portion appeared to be displaced about ^ tenth-metre towards the red, corresponding to amotion of recession, or a downward motion, of about 13 miles per second. The bright portion appeared to bedisplaced by about the same amount towards the blue, corresponding to a similar motion of approach, or an upwardmotion. The bright part of the line was in the shape of a crescent, of which the convex side was turned away fromthe mean place of the F line, and towards the violet. In some parts of the spot the F line had a peculiar appearance,the bright line being narrower than the dark line, and lying diagonally across it, inclined to it at a small angle. TheС line was reversed over a more extensive area even than F, but did not show displacement or twisting so well.

Amongst the dark lines observed to be broadened over the spot were the following :—

DI, Ds, Sodium, more than double their usual breadth.b\ Ьг &4 Magnesium \X 4890, 4891, IronA 4918, 4920, do.A 6492, CalciumA 6462, do.Л 6438, do.A 6 i 6 i , do.A 6121, do.A. 6101, do.

DS and 1474 К were not noticeably affected in any way.

The above observations were made by Mr. Maunder with the half-prism Spectroscope mounted on the South-East Equatoreal. The Spectroscope was used in the reversed position, with a train of two half-prisms, giving underthese conditions a dispersion of about 6° from A to H, the spectrum being very pure. A power of about 28 wasused on the viewing telescope.

The number of the spot-group is taken from the Photographic Results.

1886, May 7.The same group of spots was again examined with the Spectroscope arranged as on May 6, but no indication of

reversal of any of the lines was detected, nor were any lines noticeably broadened. Observer : Mr. Maunder.

Double their usual breadth.

MOTIONS OP STARS IN THE LINE OP SIGHT, INFERRED FROM SPECTROSCOPIC OBSERVATIONS

MEASURES of DISPLACEMENT of LINES in the SPECTRA of STARS, MOON, AND PLANETS as compared with those of TERRESTRIALELEMENTS, and CONCLUDED MOTIONS in the LINE of SIGHT, from OBSERVATIONS at the ROYAL OBSERVATORY, GREENWICH,in the Year 1886.

The day specified in the first column is the Civil Day, and the hours and minutes are those of Greenwich Civil Time, commencing atGreemvich Mean Midnight and counting from о to 24 hours.

Note.—The motion corresponding to the displacement actually observed may be inferred from the Concluded Motion by adding theEarth's Motion algebraically.

The " Half-prism " Spectroscope was used throughout. Each " Half-prism " is compound, and is composed of a flint " half-prism "(i.e., the half of an isosceles prism, cut by a plane perpendicular to the base,) and a crown prism, cemented on the emergent faceso as to form the half of a direct-vision prism. With one such half-prism a dispersion of about 18 ° from A to H, equivalentto that produced by four flint prisms of 60°, is obtained ; and with a train of two a dispersion of about 80°, equivalent to thatproduced by sixteen flint prisms of 60°. One half-prism has been always employed. The dispersions have been inferred frommeasurements of the distance between b^ and bt as compared with the wavelength measure.

irer- of the micrometer corresponds with one "half-prism" to 10-4 tenth-metres or 375 miles per second for the b lines, and to7-91 tenth-metres or 304 miles per second for the F line.

irev- of the screw for opening the slit corresponds to o-oi inch, or about 10".

The slit lies north and south when the reading of the Position Circle is 6°.

The velocity of light has been taken as 186,660 miles per second, and the distance of the Sun as 92,250,000 miles.

The estimations of displacements have been made by indirect comparison with the comparison-line, except where the contrary isexpressly stated. The displacement is estimated in terms of the breadth of the comparison-line.

The sign + denotes a displacement towards the red or a motion of recession, — a displacement towards the blue or a motion ofapproach.

Spectrum faint and tremulous, but star-line seen fairly well.

Spectrum bright and steady. The star-lineis broad, diffused and difficult to bisect.It was seen fairly well on this occasion,and the difficulty of bisection was duesimply to ite nebulous character.

Direct comparison showed a displacementof about half the breadth of the com-parison-line towards the blue, equivalentto a motion of approach of 39-1 milesper second.

Spectrum bright and steady. The star-line,which is rather faint, was seen withunusual distinctness.

Spectrum faint and tremulous. Star-lineill-defined.

EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATIONS of DISPLACEMENT of LINES in the SPECTRA of STARS, us compared with those ofTERRESTRIAL ELEMENTS, mado with the REVERSION APPARATUS of the OXFORD REVERSION SPECTROSCOPE, at theROYAL OBSERVATORY, GREENWICH, in the Year 1886.

The following observations were made with the reversion apparatus and viewing telescopo of the Reversion Spectroscopebelonging to the University Observatory, Oxford, which had been lent by the Rev. Prof. Pritchard for the purpose of experiment.The slit, collimator, and prisms of the Greenwich Half -prism Spectroscope were used, the Oxford Reversion Spectroscope notbeing well adapted in its complete state for use with the S. li. Equatoreal, but the viewing telescope of the Half -prismSpectroscope was taken off, and the reversion prisms and viewing telescope of the Oxford Spectroscope substituted for it. As theaperture of the telescope of the Oxford instrument was very much smaller than that of the Half-prism Spectroscope, a considerableportion of the light was lost in this rough combination. It was not found possible to attach the two instruments very rigidly toeach other without making serious alterations in one or the other. The observations were therefore made under greatdisadvantages, and direct micrometric measures were found to be out of the question. The following estimations were howevermade successfully. One half-prism was used throughout.

REMARKS.

Spectrum very tremulous, and definition poor. Neither themicrometer screw moving the prisms of the Half-prismspectroscope, nor that moving the prisms of the reversionapparatus moved with sufficient steadiness for any trust-worthy measures to be obtained by their means. It wasonly possible therefore to make estimations. These weremade by bringing the two images of the dark F line inthe star spectrum into coincidence, and then immediatelyflashing in the bright hydrogen line, and estimating thedistance between the centres of the two images of thebright hydrogen line in terms of its breadth. In the firstnine observations the micrometer screw moving theprisms of the Half-prism spectroscope was turned inorder to bring the lines into coincidence ; in the last four,the micrometer screw of the reversion apparatus ; thelatter proved much the more sensitive and satisfactory ;indeed when the finger was lifted from the first-men-tioned micrometer the spectra would often shift whileactually under observation. Notwithstanding the com-parative faintness of the spectrum, its tremulousness andpoor definition, it was found fairly easy to bring the twospectra into coincidence, but it was not so easy as hadbeen anticipated.

Spectrum faint. Definition poor. The observations of thisstar were however much more satisfactory than those ofSirius, and repeated observations showed that the dis-placement was practically nil. The precision with whichthe two images of the line could be brought into coinci-dence was evidently much greater than that with whichthe star line can be bisected by the pointer in the ordi-narv observations with the Half -prism spectroscope.

The spectrum was exceedingly faint, but the observationswere made with comparative ease, the extreme faintnessof the spectrum being the only drawback.

The adjustment of this rough combination of the twospectroscopes was defective in one particular, which mayhave affected the measures systematically. Although thelines in the two spectra were truly parallel to each other,the two spectra themselves were not parallel ; the in-verted, — not the reversed, — spectrum, which was thelower in the field of view, sloping downwards towardsthe right hand, that is towards its own red end.

OBSERVATIONS OF THE SPECTRA of 51 SOHJELLERUP, NOVA ORIONIS, and of COMETS 1885 and 1886, made

at the ROYAL OBSERVATORY, GREENWICH, in the Year 1886.

51 SOHJELLERUP.1886, January 6.

Single-prism Spectroscope.Observer, M.

The Spectrum was very faint, and not seen at all well. It consisted mainly of a bright strip lyingbetween I and D, and interrupted by one dark band in the yellow. This bright strip was bounded towards theblue by a broad dark shaded band in the green near h, the light beyond being so feeble that the sharp edge ofthe band might be almost said to terminât« the spectrum in that direction. Towards the red, the bright stripwas bounded by another dark band near D, which might in like manner be almost said to terminate thespectrum in that direction, only a very feeble light being traceable beyond it.

The star spectrum was compared with the spectrum from a Bunsen flame, and the bright band in the greenof the Bunsen flame was seen to be closely coincident with the dark band in the green in the star spectrum.The coincidence of the bright band in the yellow of the flame spectrum with the dark band in the yellow ofthe star spectrum could not be directly observed so satisfactorily. A measure however appeared to show that it

• was very close. The third band in the spectrum of the flame, that in the blue, was not compared with the starspectrum, that region of the star spectrum being too faint for examination.

The following measures of the positions of the sharp edges of the bands in the green and yellow of thespectrum of the star, as compared with the corresponding bands of the spectrum of the Bunsen flame, wereobtained :—

зо OBSERVATIONS OP THE NOVA OEIONIS AND OF COMETS 1885 AND 1886

NOVA ORIONIS.1886, January 6.

Single-prism Spectroscope.Observer, M.

No details additional to those seen on 1885, December 29, were made out ; indeed the spectrum was not seenso well now as on the former occasion.

1886, January 11.

Single-prism Spectroscope.' Observer, M.

The star was now much fainter and paler than on December 29 and January 6. The red and blue endswere too faint for any details whatsoever to be made out in them, and the beauty of the spectrum as it hadbeen seen on December 29 was quite lost, the vivid alternations of light and darkness being now not nearly soconspicuous and well defined.

Only three dark bands were clearly seen, and these could not be satisfactorily, measured. These werebands V., VI., and VII. of the numeration employed in the observations of ß Pegasi made on 1876, October 18 ;wave-lengths as then determined, Л 5450, A 5164, Л 4953. In Dunér's nomenclature, these are bands 6, 7, and 8.Immediately beyond band VI. towards the blue, the spectrum was, relatively, very bright, and might well havebeen supposed to indicate the presence of bright lines, but this district is always very bright in stars of thistype. The dark bands seemed narrower, and not so dark as on December 29, and the bright intervals or zonesfar less bright than on that occasion, the zone just alluded to being the only one retaining any large proportionof its former brilliancy. It is clear therefore that the diminution of the light of the star was not accompaniedby an increase in the breadth and darkness of the dark bands, but by a diminution in brightness of the generalcontinuous spectrum.

: COMET e 1885 (BARNARD).1886, March 31. '

Half-prism Spectroscope. One "half-prism" reversed.

Observer, M.The comet was very faint and great difficulty was experienced in bringing it on to the slit of the spectro-

scope. The spectrum consisted of the usual three bright bands, sharp towards the less refrangible edge,and shading off towards the more refrangible. Of these the one in the blue could only just be discerned ; theone in the green was as usual very much brighter at its sharp edge than was the one in the yellow, but it wasnot traceable so far towards the blue, for whilst the yellow band was traceable almost up to the green band,the latter could only be traced to about Л 4965.

The green band appeared to be about 72" in height, the yellow band about 43" or 45" or perhaps even 48" or50" ; but the yellow band was nearly as high at its faintest point as at its brightest. It did not fade awayrapidly towards the blue as the green band did, but continued with very little diminution of brightness for along distance from its bright edge. There was, however, a broad distinct dark gap between the last trace ofthe yellow band and the bright sharp edge of the green band.

There was no trace of a continuous spectrum seen, although the comet showed a distinct stellar nucleus.It was not found possible to get any satisfactory measures, but it was quite clear that the green band coincidedvery nearly if not exactly with the green band of the spectrum of the Bunsen flame, and not with the greenband of the spectrum from a vacuum tube filled with carbonic dioxide. Indeed, if there was any want ofcoincidence with the spectrum of the Bunsen flame, the comet band lay towards the blue of the band of theBunsen flame, and not towards the red.

The height of the blue band of the comet spectrum was about 29". The yellow band was traced from aboutA. 5633 to X 5226.

Half-prism Spectroscope ; one " half-prism " direct.1886, May 4.

Observer, M.

The comet was not observed until the dawn was very far advanced ; and the spectrum could only be seenfrom the actual nucleus, as the light from the sky was so strong as quite to overpower the light from the comaand tail of the comet. The blue and green bands were seen, the latter being particularly well defined.

The following meaHures were obtained of the Green Band :—

Half-prism Spectroscope ; one " half-prism " direct.Observer, M.

Great difficulty was experienced in bringing the comet on to the slit of the spectroscope. Finally, how-ever, a good view of the spectrum was obtained. The three ordinary bands were seen very easily, but none ofthem were sharply defined. A faint continuous spectrum,—whether from general sky illumination, or fromthe comet itself, was not determined,—spread over the field, and much interfered with observation. Thefollowing measxiros were obtained of the sharp less refrangible edge of the green band in the spectrum of thecomet as compared with Mg, of the magnesium, spectrum. The comet was lost in the murkiuess of the loweratmosphere before any measures could be secured of the other bands.

The Groups of Spots are numbered in the order of their appearance. When there is no number in the third column it is to be understood that there is a Faculaunaccompanied by a Spot. The positions of Faculaa relative to the Spots with which they are associated are indicated by the letters n, a, j>, /, n, denotingrespectively north, south, preceding, following, concentric.

The Areas of Spots and Faculte are expressed in millionths of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

Jan. 12. The image of the Sun on this photograph is decidedly elliptical. The positions of some of the spote appear to be affected to a small extent by distortion of thephotographic film.

Jan. 14. Photograph faint. Facuke ill-defined.Group 1828, Jan. 12-2Г. Several small spots on Jan. 12, arranged in four clusters. The group increases in size very rapidly. On Jan. 13, it consists of a large

regular spot, a, followed by a scattered stream composed of many spots, mostly small, a has very greatly increased in size by Jan. 14, and most of theemail spots following it have coalesced to form a large spot, b, b has broken up by Jan. 16, but the small spots have coalesced again in a differentmanner, to form one large spot, c, by Jan. 17. о has broken up by Jan. 19.

Group 1829, Jan. 13-22. Three spote on Jan. 13 ; flve spots arranged in two clusters on Jan. 14. The two spots, a and I, which form the preceding cluster,have separated a little by Jan. 15 and are measured separately- The following cluster has broken up into a number of small spots. The group extendsin longitude on the succeeding days but diminishes in area, b has broken up into a number of small spots by Jan. 19. Only a is seen on Jan. гг.

The Groups of Spots are numbered in the order of their appearance. When there is no number in the third column it is to be understood that there is a Faculaunaccompanied by a Spot. The positions of Faculœ relative to the Spots with which they are associated are indicated by the letters », *, p, f, a, denotingrespectively north, south, preceding, following, concentric.

The Areas of Spots and Faculœ are expressed in millionth» of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

Feb. 15 and 16. Spots and Faculœ ill-defined. Feb. 19. Limb very faint. Faculœ ill-defined.Group 1840, Feb. 11-17. A very small spot on Feb. n. On Feb. 12 the group appears as a straggling stream of very small spotB. The preceding spot of the group on

Feb. 13 is a regular spot, which has diminished in size by Feb. 14. The rest of the group undergoes continual changes, but remains on the whole an irregularstraggling stream of spots.

Group 1841, Feb. 11-13. Two very small faint spots on Feb. n and 12. A third is seen close to the first two on Feb. 12. Only one spot remains on Feb. 13.Group 1842, Feb. 17-23. A small spot.Group 1843, Feb. 20-2$. A number of small spots first seen near the centre of the Sun's disk. When first seen on Feb. 20, most of the spots are arranged in a circle,

enclosing a considerable area. By Feb. 21 many of the spots have disappeared, and the group f orme a straight stream. The group diminishes in size on succeedingdays and no trace of it is seen on Feb. 24. On Feb. 25 a very small spot is seen very near the place of the group.

The Groups of Spots are numbered in the order of their appearance. When there is no number in the third column it is to be understood that there is a Faoulaunaccompanied by a Spot. The positions of Faculte relative to the Spote with which they are associated are indicated by the letters n, e, p,ft o, denotingrespectively north, south, preceding, following, concentric. •

The Areas of Spots and Faculse are expressed in millionths of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

Maroh 4. Photograph very faint. Spots and Faculse ill-defined.Group 1849, March 2-8. Two small spots on March 2. Of these the following spot, a, increases in size on the succeeding days, but remains fairly stable in position and

appearance. It undergoes a great increase in size between March 7 and 8. The preceding portion of the group has become a short stream of spate by March 3.These spote have coalesced to form two spote by March 4, and have again divided and coalesced in a different manner, principally to form two spots, í and o, byMarch 5. a has divided into two spots by March 7, but these have combined again by March 8.

Group 1850, March 3-6. Two very small faint spots, a and b. b has disappeared by March 6.Group 1851, Maroh 3-14. A regular spot, a ; one or two small spote are seen near it on Maroh 5, 6, and 8.Group 1852, March 3-15. A large regular spot, a. The group has become suddenly larger by Maroh 1 1, principally by the appearance of a stream of epote immediately

to the south of a. These later formed spots diminish in number and area on the succeeding days.Group 1853, March 4-16 A very large regular spot, a, followed by ft stream of email epote. The email epote undergo very frequent changée in area, appearance, end

arrangement ; a has thrown off a portion by March 9, but increases in size during the succeeding days. The small spots have all disappeared by March 14.

The Groups of Spots are numbered in the order of their appearance. When there is no number in the third column it is to be understood that there is a Faoulaunaccompanied by a Spot. The positions of Faculœ relative to the Spots with which they are associated are indicated by the letters n, e, p, f, a, denotingrespectively north, south, preceding, following, concentric.

The Areas of Spote and Faculte are expressed in millionths of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

The Groups of Spots are numbered in the order of their appearance. When there is no number in the third column it is to be understood that there is a Faaulaunaccompanied by a Spot. The positions of Faoulro relative to the Spots with which they are associated, are indicated by the letters я, t, p, f, o, denotingrespectively north, south, preceding, following, concentric.

The Areas of Spots and Faculto are oxpresxod in millionths of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

March 23. Limb of Sun faint. Faoultu ill-defined.Group 1855, March 18-33. Two very email faint spots on March 18. Only one spot is seen on March 19, ao, and зз, but on March 21 the group consists of six very

small spots arranged in two clusters. The spots seen on March 19 and 20 do not seem to be the same.Group 1856, March 18-30. A large regular spot, a, followed on March 20 and the succeeding days by a short stream of small spote. A second regular spot, b, has

appeared close to a by March 23 ; Ъ has divided into two portions by March 26, but is still measured as one spot. It has entirely broken up by March 38, and onlya remains by March 29 ; a diminishes in size after March 20, but slightly recovers iteelf on March 24, diminishing again on succeeding days.

Group 1857, March 19-20. Two small spots, a and b.Group 1858, March 20-25. An irregular cluster of very small spots on March to. The group develops on the succeeding days, and has become a straight stream of spots

by March 22, the first spot, a, being the largest ; only a remains by March 34.Group 1859, March 23-April 4. Two large regular spots, a and i, with several small spots between them. Only a and b are seen after March 30.

The Group« of Spote are numbered in the order of their appearance. When there is no number in the third column it is to be understood that there is a Faoulaunaccompanied by a Spot. The positions of Faculte relative to the Spots with which they are associated are indicated by the letters и, к, 2', f, >', denotingrespectively north, south, preceding, following, concentric.

The Areas of Spote and Facnlœ are expressed in millionths of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

Group 1860, March 26-April 5. Three small spot« on March 26. The group rapidly increases in size on the succeeding days, and two larite upots, a and b, have formedby March 28. These, but especially a, increase in size on the succeeding days ; Ъ hoe broken up into a great number of small HpotH, which are Htill measured asone, on March 31 and April ï, but has closed up again to form one large spot by April 2. A large portion of Ъ has become partly separated from it by April 4, andhas wholly disappeared by April 5, thus causing an apparent change in the position of the spot.

Group 1861, March 2g-April 9. A small spot on March 29. Other spots appear following it on the succeeding days, and the group consists on April ï and thesucceeding days of a number of epote, mostly small, following one another in a fairly straight stream. The group changes its appearance from day to day.

Group 1862, March зо-April ï. Two very email spots on March 30. One small spot on March 31 and April ï.

The Areas of Spots and Faculte are expressed in millionth^ of the Sun's visible Hemisphere.

Group 1922, Sept. 7-9. Two small spots, a and b. Only Ь is seen on Sept. 9.Group 1923, Sept. 9-21. A large regular spot, a, which has divided into two portions, b and a, by Sept. 18. Several very small spots are seen from time to time following

the principal spot.Group 1924, Sept. 10-15. Thie group extends over a large area, in which small spots appear and disappear in a very irregular manner. On Sept. ю the group consists

of two widely separated clusters, a and b, b is not seen on Sept. n, and is represented only by a single spot on Sept. 12. But by Sept. 13 the whole of thepreceding cluster, a, has disappeared, and a number of email spots are seen irregularly distributed over the greater part of the area, which on Sept. ю and 12 layvacant, between a and Ъ. On Sept. 14 and 15 the group forms three compact clusters of very small spots ; but the clusters on Sept. 15 do not correspond preciselyto those seen on Sept. 14.

Group 1925, Sept. 10-15. A small spot on Sept. ю and n. No spot is seen on Sept. 12, but on Sept. 13 the group is seen again as a number of very small spots arrangedin two clusters. The group forms an irregular stream of very small spot« on Sept. 15.

Group 1926, Sept. 13-20. A number of small spots following one another in a straggling stream. The first spot, a, is the largest and beet defined, but it Buffer« continualchange of shape and area, alternately coalescing with email epote near it, and having portions separated from it.

MEAN AB.BÁS of Пмввд!, WHOLE SPOTS, and FAOUL^J upon the SUN'S DISK, as measured on PHOTOGBAPHStaken at the ROYAL OBSEBVATOBY, GBEENWIOH, at DHHBA DUN, INDIA, and in MAUBITIUS, for eachROTATION of the SUN, from 1885 December 21 to 1887 January 6.

The Mean Areas have been formed by taking the Means of the Areas for each day of observation throughouteach Rotation of the Sun, the Projected Areas being the areas as measured on the photographs and expressed inmillionths of the Sun's apparent disk, and the Areas corrected for foreshortening being expressed (as in formeryears) in millionths of the Sun's visible hemisphere.

The rotations adopted in the following table (which is in continuation of those for the years 1873-1884 and1885 printed in the Greenwich Observations for 1884 and 1885) correspond to the synodic rotation of the Sun,and the commencement of each is defined by the coincidence of the assumed prime meridian with the centralmeridian, the assumed prime meridian being that meridian which passed through the ascending node at meannoon on January ï, 1854, and the assumed period of the Sun's sidereal rotation being 25-38 days. The rotationsadopted in the volumes of Greenwich Observations, 1877 to 1883, correspond on the other hand to the siderealrotation of the Sun, the commencement of each being defined by the coincidence of the assumed prime meridianwith the ascending node. The numeration of the rotations is in continuation of Carrington's series (Observa-tions of Solar Spots made atRedhill by R. G, Carrington, F.R.S.), No. ï being thé rotation commencing 1853,November 9, The dates of commencement of the rotations are given in GBEHNWIOH CIVIL TIME, reckoningfrom midnight.-

MEAN HELIOGRAPHIO LATITUDE of the SPOTS upon the SUN'S DISK, as measured on PHOTOGRAPHS taken at theROYAL OBSERVATORY, GREENWICH, at DEHRA DUN, INDIA, and in MAURITIUS, for each ROTATION of theSUN, from 1885 December 21 to 1886 December 9.

The numbers given in the accompanying table have been formed as follows :—The Heliographie Latitude of each Spot for each day has been multiplied by its Area (corrected for fore-

shortening), and the sum of the products for Spots North of the Sun's Equator has been divided by the sum of thecorresponding Areas to form Mean Heliographie Latitude of Spotted Area North of Equator ; similarly for SpotsSouth of the Equator. In forming the Mean Heliographie Latitude of entire Spotted Area the algebraic sum ofthe products for Spots North and South of the Equator has been divided by the sum of the Areas ; and for theMean Distance from the Equator for all Spots, the numerical sum of the products, without regard to the sign ofthe latitude, has been similarly divided.

The Mean Areas .have been formed by dividing the sum of the Daily Areas (corrected for foreshortening) bythe number of days of observation for each Rotation of the Sun, and are expressed in millionths of the Sun'svisible hemisphere.

NOTE.—In the computations for forming the corresponding Tables given in the Volumes for 1884 and 1885the latitudes of the Spots were only taken to the nearest whole degree, the next higher whole degree being adoptedwhenever the fractional part of the latitude amounted to or exceeded -5. Thus, under 8°, for example, would beincluded all Spots from 7°'5 to 8°-4, both inclusive ; and the corresponding mean latitude should have been takenas 70i95 instead of 8°. The Mean Heliographie Latitudes, therefore, both for Spots North and Spots South of theEquator, and the Mean Distances from the Equator of all Spots, both for the rotations and for entire years, requirea correction of — o°-o5. The Mean Latitude of the entire Spotted Area requires the following correction :—

_ Oi Mean Area N. — Mean Area S.Mean Area N. + Mean Area S.

These corrections have been applied in computing the Mean Heliographie Latitudes and Mean Distance from theEquator given in the above Tables for 1886.
