I have, in addition, included a short account of the researches of Stark and others on the Doppler effect in Positive Rays and of Gehrcke and Reichenheim's experiments on Anode Rays, as these, those on the doppler effect especially, are very closely connected with the results obtained by the very different methods described in the earlier part of this book. I have described at some length the application of Positive Rays to chemical analysis; one of the main reasons for writing this book was the hope that it might induce Others, and especially chemists, to try this method of analysis. I feel sure that there are many problems in Chemistry which could be solved with far greater ease by this than by any other method. The method is surprisingly sensitive more so even than that of Spectrum Analysis, requires an infinitesimal amount of material, and does not require.
