Giving observations of a new star observed by him and some of his correspondents.
Comments on new star reported by WH [see WH's 1866-5-18]; includes diagram of that portion of the sky.
Much obliged for his observations of June 1842. Probably the same star that is now being observed. Gives observations sent him by G. B. Airy.
Has just found that the bands of light from the comet are resolved by the spectroscope into bands that constitute a modified form of carbon. The spectrum of the comet was compared directly with a current of olefiant gas.
Comments on WH's spectroscopic examination of cometary tails [see WH's 1868-7-2].
Is grateful for his note. Has sent a paper to the R.S.L. on cometary phenomena and encloses a copy of the part in which he refers to JH's views. Would be glad if it were possible to explain the phenomena of tails.
