This book delves into the effects of heavy pressure on electric arcs, a subject explored by the author with novel experimental apparatus that allowed for the application of pressures up to 100 atmospheres. Through the detailed examination of spectral lines, the author quantitatively determined the shift in wave-length caused by the pressure, finding that the amount of shift is roughly proportional to the pressure and varies for different spectral lines and elements. The author further investigated the relationship between the observed pressure shift and other phenomena, expanding our understanding of atomic structure, the nature of light, and the behavior of matter under extreme conditions. This book is a valuable resource for physicists, astronomers, and anyone interested in the fundamental principles governing the interactions of light and matter.
