THE arrangement of the non-nuclear electrons in the atom is being determined by work along two lines: first, from the Bohr-Summerfeld theory of characteristic frequencies, and, secondly, from the Lewis-Langmuir or Born-Lande theory of the structure of molecules, supported by Prof. W. L. Bragg's work on atomic radii in crystals. It has been stated several times recently that the conclusions drawn from the two sources are mutually inconsistent, in that the first indicates that the electrons are revolving in planetary orbits, and the second that they are fixed in constant positions. The essential truth of the first theory is now beyond doubt; the second is extremely plausible. If they are really inconsistent the position would be intolerable.
