The Radiometer by John Browning is a book published in 1876 that describes an instrument that revolves continuously under the influence of radiation. The instrument, also known as a Crookes radiometer, is a device that consists of a glass bulb containing a partial vacuum and a set of vanes that are mounted on a spindle. When exposed to light or other forms of radiation, the vanes rotate due to the thermal effects of the radiation. The book provides a detailed description of the construction and operation of the radiometer, including the materials and techniques used in its manufacture. It also includes a discussion of the scientific principles underlying the instrument, such as the laws of thermodynamics and the nature of radiation.The Radiometer is a valuable resource for scientists, engineers, and anyone interested in the history of scientific instrumentation. It provides a fascinating insight into the development of early scientific instruments and the scientific discoveries that were made possible by their use.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
