Abstract
IN an arc burning between two aluminium electrodes in a hydrogen atmosphere at reduced pressure, we have succeeded in getting two new band systems of the hydride AlH. One band system lying at 3800 A. has been photographed in the second order of a 6 5 m. grating (0 96 A./mm.) after an exposure of 12 hr. The other band system, lying at 3600 A. (degraded to violet) has been obtained in the same order after an exposure of 1½ hr. from a discharge through a mixture of aluminium chloride and hydrogen in a quartz tube, which is by far the most intense source for this band system.
