Scientific paper

AT about noon on this day a fine halo with its mock suns was well seen at the Radcliffe Observatory. Measurements of the vertical radii of the first circle gave 22° 24', whilst the angular distance between the true and mock suns was 22° 30'. The radius of the second circle was rather difficult to determine, but the mean of several measures gave 46° 40'. The inverted arcs at the vertices of the two circles were clearly seen. The zenith distance of the sun's centre was nearly 75° at the time of the observation.
