Abstract
IN an earlier communication1, it was reported that barium nitrate behaves in an exceptional manner in respect of its photo-elasticity. Since then, crystals of lead nitrate have also been studied, and differences between the stress-optical constants, as determined by a Babinet compensator for the sodium D lines, are found to be: .
