ABSTRACT IN 1928 I published some investigations1 on the X-ray wave-length of the aluminium _K_1,2 line on the absolute scale, as obtained with the plane ruled grating method. From this the
wave-length in question came out as about 0.15 per cent higher on the absolute scale than that found by the ordinary crystal method. This difference was considerably greater than expected
from the stated uncertainties of the constants involved in the computation of the crystal lattice of calcite, which constitutes the crystal scale. As is well known, this result therefore was
looked upon with decided scepticism. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through
