Abstract
DURING the recent meeting of the British Association at Brighton, it was casually remarked by Sir William Thomson that during the eclipse of last December, it had been observed that the radial polarisation of the corona was greater at a small distance from the sun than close to it. This observation he thought was a very important one.
