Scientific paper

THE comet at present visible was examined by me with the spectroscope on the 8¼-inch refractor on Saturday evening, August 27. The three principal hydrocarbon bands were plainly visible, the central one being the brightest, and on comparing them with the spectrum of a spirit-lamp flame the coincidence of the least refrangible sides of the bands in the two spectra was sensibly complete. The nucleus gave a narrow continuous spectrum, and I could see no trace of such a spectrum except from that point. I could see no other band in the spectrum except the three above mentioned, but the proximity of the comet to the horizon may have something to do with this.
