Excerpt from Le Radium, 1913, Vol. 10: La Radioactivité Et les Radiations, l'Ionisation; Journal de Physique Théorique Et Expérimentale
Quelque temps après l'introduction de la parcelle de radium dans la chambre de détente on observe que les particules et sont émises dans tous les sens (voir fig. Ce qui s'explique par le dégagement d'émana tion et le dépôt de la radioactivité induite sur les parois. On observe souvent qu'un trait fin semble disparaître lorsqu'il rencontre un trait élargi, pour réapparaître quand il quitte ce dernier; cela vient évidemment de ce qu'à cet endroit la vapeur n'est plus assez sursaturée.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex study of air ionization and offers an extensive inquiry into the nature and causes of this phenomenon. Beginning with an exploration of the early observations of air ionization in enclosed spaces, the author traces the historical development of the field, examining the groundbreaking contributions of scientists like Rutherford and Cooke and the ongoing research that continues to shape our understanding. Through a comprehensive analysis of experimental findings, the book sheds light on the multiple factors influencing air ionization, including the presence of radioactive substances, the effects of vessel surfaces, and the impact of external radiation. Notably, the author examines the intriguing possibility of an intrinsic ionizing property within the air itself or a fundamental characteristic of matter. The book concludes with a thought-provoking discussion on the implications of these findings, inviting readers to contemplate the wider significance of air ionization and the potential for unexplored phenomena in the realm of natural science.
