An expensive but interesting and useful addition to a microscope is a polarizing apparatus, or polariscope.
And by imagining in polarizing substances the existence of some structure acting like a grating, a notion can be obtained how the rays in the different planes may be transmitted or intercepted.
But the beginner will do well, if he have the achromatic condenser and the polarizing apparatus, to lay these aside until he has had considerable practice in examining objects simply with the mirror and the lower powers.
The power of doubly refracting and polarizing is not possessed by all crystalline bodies, but only those belonging to other than the cubic system; crystals belonging to this system neither doubly refract nor polarize light.
It is the polarizing point of the soul's evolution in matter, and therefore, forms the lowest are in the Cycle of Necessity.
In other words, Sagittarius symbolizes that state of the soul wherein it is descending to its polarizing point, and is, therefore, the vortex of innumerable opposing forces, seeking expression in different forms.
The polarizing photo-chronograph, designed and used by A.
Illustration] The tube N contains the illuminating system of lenses and is placed next to the lamp; the polarizingprism is at O, and the analyzing prism at H.
Examples of circularlypolarizing cubic crystals are sodium chlorate, sodium bromate, and sodium uranyl acetate; amongst tetragonal crystals are strychnine sulphate and guanidine carbonate; amongst rhombohedral are quartz (q.
In order to see the axial colours separately the crystal must be examined with a dichroscope, or in a polarizingmicroscope from which the analyser has been removed.
When a uniaxial crystal is examined in a polariscope or polarizing microscope between crossed nicols (i.
A polarizing apparatus, though not an essential in the hands of the paint chemist, is nevertheless much to be desired, for by its help deductions may be drawn as to the contents of a paint, which by other means might not be possible.
On examining this under the microscope and using the polarizing apparatus, the crystalline pigments are at once detected by revolving the analyzer.
The twofold character of the aerial principles is increased by every polarizing action from without, and therefore principally by the surface of the earth, which consists of two elements.
Darkness is at the same time the lurking-place of putrefaction, as being that which only plays its part in localities where the polarizing and dissevering influence of light is wanting.
The polarizing process will issue from a definite point, which is different from water, and thus form the point upon which the light operates with greatest force.
There is in the universe no vital force of its own; the individual things lie not there some time and await the polarizing breath, but they first become through the breath of God.
Since every stimulation is a polarizing act, and each body is in polar activity towards the other at every conceivable distance, so may an extremely irritable nervous system also perceive the feeblest polarizations.
Thus, were the male semen to actually solidify into the foetus; it is still not its mass which comes into consideration in the latter, but only its polarizing strength.
On the other hand such nutritive matters are decomposed upon the external wall; and there here therefore gradually originates, instead of the chemicalizing root-process, the polarizing process of air.
The light-system must be related to all other spiritual systems and the three fundamental systems of the organism, or to the simply organic systems as light is to matter, being thus polarizing or dominant.
The kingdom of organisms is an iron bar, in which the magnetic poles originate and vanish or change, according as the polarizing magnet is removed.
This is effected by polarizing on the Higher Self, and thus raising the mental vibrations of the Ego above those of the ordinary plane of consciousness.
And, likewise, the Slothful man may change himself into an Active, Energetic individual simply by polarizing along the lines of the desired quality.
The doctor explained its action to me thus:-- "The polarizing action of the gravity apparatus affects only steel and iron, and has no effect upon lead.
It is so arranged that the polarizing action ceases in three minutes, after which the positive current controls, and the model falls to the Earth again.
Yes, he had told me it was all accomplished by polarizing the steel and iron of the projectile!
These chores completed, he held his finger on a bedside button, which rotated the polarizing window panes until the room slowly filled with a muted daylight.
The polarizing angle augments with the index of refraction.
The polarizing angle of the liquid may be thus found with the sharpest precision.
At the polarizing angle one beam only is capable of being thus reflected.
Footnote 17: This beautiful law is usually thus expressed: The index of refraction of any substance is the tangent of its polarizing angle.
Footnote 4: It will be subsequently shown how this simple apparatus may be employed to determine the 'polarizing angle' of a liquid.
As already stated, the whole of a beam of ordinary light reflected from glass at the polarizing angle is polarized; a word must now be added regarding the far larger portion of the light which is transmitted by the glass.
A plate of selenite placed between the Nicol and the actinic cloud shows the colours of polarized light; in fact, the cloud itself plays the part of a polarizing Nicol.
I knew there were two sheets of polarizing glass, probably with a vacuum between to keep out the cold and the heat, and the lights in the room were beautifully synchronized with the polarized sliding glass.
When we breathe upon the plates C D, we form upon their surface a thin film of water, whose polarizing angle is 53 deg.
The light A, C, B, D is polarized by reflection from the plates A B, because it is incident at the polarizing angle 56 deg.
