Abstract

Professor Stokes did me the honour of communicating to the Royal Society a short paper (“Proc. Roy. Soc.,” vol. 28, p. 242) giving an account of some determinations I had made of the values of the principal incidence for, and the principal azimuth of, red light, when reflected by a gold plate in contact with air, water, and carbon bisulphide. These experiments I have continued, using light of different refran-gibilities, and gold and silver plates, and also thin films of these metals.
