✦ Synopsis

Newton's Rings.--Sohncke and Wangerin have repeated and extended their observations upon Newton's rings, with results which confirm their early views with regard to the slight eccentricity of the rings. If the microscope is so placed as to give the sharpest possible definition to any portion of a dark ring, in order to see another ring, or even another part of the same ring, it is not sufficient to move the microscope in a parallel plane, but it must be elevated upon one side and depressed upon the other.--Ann, der Phys. und Chem.
