Abstract

WE have in previous papers described experiments respecting electric conduction when Röntgen rays fall on metals, positively or negatively electrified to potentials of two or three volts. We found that although air is rendered conductive, paraffin and glass are not rendered sensibly conductive when the differences of potential concerned are not more than two or three volts per centimetre of air, or per centimetre of paraffin, or per half-millimetre of glass.
