To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It has also been 1 Three main types of rays are emitted by radioactive substances which have been termed the a-, /3-, and 7-rays. The last are the most penetrating ; they resemble X-rays, although their nature is not yet definitely established.
122 . THE ATMOSPHERE [CH.
recently shown that comparatively large quantities of this emanation occur in the air of Manchester. Now, since the rate of decay of the thorium emana- tion is extremely rapid, it follows that its origin cannot be at any great d...epth below the soil, but it is highly probable that the surface rocks, in places where this emanation occurs in quantity in the atmo- sphere, are rich in thorium.
Investigations of the radioactive emanations in the atmosphere continue to yield results of interest. Experiments carried out in 1910 at the Sestola Observatory in the Appenines at an elevation of over 3000 feet have shown that the proportion of the activity collected by a charged wire due to the thorium emanation varied considerably, being in- creased by a falling barometer and high winds.
