Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The University Studies of the University of Nebraska, Vol. 1
If an excessively diffused material substance be supposed scattered through space in a gaseous state, such a body could only absorb selectively through its atoms, its molecules being too widely scattered to allow of any transformation of energy into molecular friction. Hence the only loss, other than by selective absorption, would be in the ether itself. The ab sorption would then take place according to the same laws which determine it when such a substance is not present.
