Abstract

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Prompt publication of brief reports of important discoveries in physics may be secured by addressing them to this department. Closing dates for this depart- ment are, for the first issue of the month, the twenty-eighth of the preceding month; for the second issue, the thirteenth of the month. The Board of Editors does not hold itself responsible for the opinions expressed by the correspondents. The most stable configuiration, s2p4, of neutral oxygen gives rise to three terms, 3p, ID and 1S. McLennan' has shown that the green auroral line corresponds to the ID-IS transition. Recently Frerichs2 by a very exhaustive analysis of the oxygen spec- trum has been able to predict the positions of the 3P2-'D and 3P1-'D transitions at 6299 ±5A and 6363 ±5A respectively while a private communication to Dr. Frerichs from Professor Paschen states that he has found these lines in the laboratory at 6300.00A and 6363.86A.
