Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Conservation of Solar Energy: A Collection of Papers and Discussions
Statement of M. Faye's objections, p. 71. By means of a hypothetical bent tube extending from the Sun in the polar and equatorial directions, it is shown how, if the equatorial branch is supposed to revolve, the matter within it must become lighter and cause a continuous ?ow into the polar tube, p. 72, the power necessary to maintain the current being derived from solar rotation, p. 73.
Analogous but inverse conditions on the earth to the solar spots, in the form of an equatorial or trade-wind current giving rise in our latitudes to cyclones, p. 74 cause of the deviation of the Sun-spots in latitude is the less resistance in the polar direction, p. 75.
