Abstract
IN a paper recently published in Proc. Roy. Soc. A. 106, p. 138, Prof. McLennan and Dr. Shrum give results showing that they have been able to produce the same luminescence effect in solid nitrogen which I discovered in January last and foretold in my earlier papers on the auroral spectrum. In their discussion of the results, however, they come to the conclusion that this effect is not applicable to the auroral spectrum.
