Abstract

During the appearance of the new star in the constellation Auriga, which was discovered in January, 1892, the Kensington photographs were the first to show that several of the brighter lines were accompanied by absorption lines on their more refrangible sides. This appearance I explained on the hypothesis that we were dealing with at least two bodies, one giving a radiation, and the other an absorption spectrum, the differential movements of which could be determined by the changes of wave-lengths observed.
