Description

Excerpt from Mathematical and Physical Papers, Vol. 2 Professor Powell's letter, I was led to perceive that the intensity of the light could be expressed in finite terms. This saves the trouble of Mr Airy's quadratures, and allows the results to be discussed with great facility. The law, too, Of the variation Of the intensity with the thickness of the plate is very remarkable, on account of its discontinuity. These reasons have induced me to lay my investigation before the Royal Society, even though the remarkable polarity of the bands has been already explained by the Astronomer Royal. The observation of these bands seems likely to become of great importance in the determination of the refractive indices, and more especially the laws of dispersion, of minerals and other substances which cannot be formed into prisms which would exhibit the fixed lines of the spectrum.
