A Pair of Patient Lovers Its exceptional brightness rather favors the view that a small part of the light by which it shines comes from its own incandescence. Other Worlds Their Nature, Possibilities and Habitability in the Light of the Latest Discoveries The vapour which produces incandescence is here absolutely dark. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 In consuming that coal directly by destructive distillation you can produce 1,500 candles light; by converting it into power, and then again into light by incandescence, you produce 992! Scientific American Supplement, No. 315, January 14, 1882 If a charcoal broiler is employed, somehow it never reaches the proper state of incandescence at the right time. If You're Going to Live in the Country This led to the theory, now held, that the increase in brilliancy of these stars is caused by the incandescence of this gas. The Prairie Farmer, Vol. 56, No. 2, January 12, 1884 A Weekly Journal for the Farm, Orchard and Fireside The materials which have been burned for light, whether solid or liquid, are rich in carbon, and the solid particles of carbon by virtue of their incandescence are responsible for the brightness of a flame. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization Metals sufficiently refractory to bear being raised to vivid incandescence are also at hand. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 But Mr. Farley did not desist; neither did he fail to keep the telegraph wires to New York heated to incandescence with his appeals for a renewal of the negotiations for surrender. The Quickening The cylinder to be heated to incandescence is firmly held in place on a metal spindle, which is slowly revolved by means of an ingenious clock-work in the base of the fixture. Scientific American Supplement, No. 633, February 18, 1888 The filament of the electric bulb will not be incandescent apart from the functioning of the dynamo; but that is a poor reason for saying that the incandescence is in the dynamo. Theodicy Essays on the Goodness of God, the Freedom of Man and the Origin of Evil The unburned carbon particles rise in its draft and become heated to incandescence, thus accounting for the brighter portion. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization The branch currents may be employed to raise to vivid incandescence a refractory metal like iridium or one of its alloys. Fragments of science, V. 1-2 On the bronze doors he had been at such pains to seal shut there had come into being a round circle of dull red which was speedily changing into a coruscating incandescence. Plague Ship The question of the antiquity of the earth, including even the period of incandescence, which has been so keenly discussed, is thus reduced to a thermometric determination. Biographies of Distinguished Scientific Men If this flame be made to play upon a ball of carbonate of lime, the lime on becoming white hot gives off a powerful incandescence. A Catechism of Familiar Things; Their History, and the Events Which Led to Their Discovery. With a Short Explanation of Some of the Principal Natural Phenomena. For the Use of Schools and Families. Enlarged and Revised Edition. Placing this in the faintly luminous flame, he will be surprised at the brilliance of its incandescence when it has become heated. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization For a long time, the only gas flame used was that in which the luminosity resulted in heating particles of carbon to incandescence. General Science These wandering bodies carry in themselves the principle of their incandescence. All Around the Moon Arsenic and antimony in powder combine with this gaseous body with incandescence. Scientific American Supplement, No. 561, October 2, 1886 Over the snow-covered stretch of level shoreland the moon poured a flood of silver incandescence. The Eternal Maiden Many years ago Geissler, Crookes, and other scientists studied the spectra of gases excited to incandescence by the electric discharge in so-called vacuum tubes. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization A very small amount of burning gas is sufficient to raise the mantle to incandescence, and hence, by the use of a mantle, intense light is secured at little cost. General Science And since his eyes were downcast, George was unaware of their fitful incandescence. The Day of Days An Extravaganza This insures perfect combustion of the gas within the basket of magnesia placed above, and which is thus brought to a state of incandescence. Scientific American Supplement, No. 561, October 2, 1886 A man with a volcanic incandescence within him such as was now afire in Rose, is utterly useless until it subsides—totally incapable, at least, of any sort of creative or imaginative work. The Real Adventure This substance does not conduct electricity at ordinary temperatures, but when heated to incandescence it becomes conducting. Artificial Light Its Influence upon Civilization A fine, hairlike filament within a glass bulb is raised to incandescence by the heat of an electric current. General Science But we are very well acquainted with emission or absorption by incandescence, where the only transformation is that of calorific into radiating energy, or vice versa. The New Physics and Its Evolution Red phosphorus also reacts with incandescence when heated in the vapor of boron iodide. Scientific American Supplement, No. 841, February 13, 1892 The steel itself escaped in a milky incandescence. The Three Black Pennys A Novel Phosphorus.—Immediately phosphorus, either the ordinary yellow variety or red phosphorus, comes in contact with fluorine, a most lively action occurs, accompanied by vivid incandescence. Scientific American Supplement, No. 832, December 12, 1891 He collapsed from weakness, to be sure; but in a moment his iron will, apparently angered to incandescence, got him to his feet and on his way with an excess of energy. The Silent Places On incandescence, luminescence is superposed; and the advantage which might have been expected from the simplicity of the medium vanishes through the complication of the circumstances in which the phenomenon is produced. The New Physics and Its Evolution Nitric acid reacts energetically with it, but without incandescence, and a certain amount of iodine is liberated. Scientific American Supplement, No. 841, February 13, 1892 Electrons are also produced by exposing various metals to the action of ultra-violet light, and by raising the temperature of various metals to incandescence. The Story of Alchemy and the Beginnings of Chemistry Arsenic combines with fluorine at the ordinary temperature with incandescence.

Scientific American Supplement, No. 832, December 12, 1891 Independently of their use as accumulators, secondary zinc batteries may be utilized as regulating voltameters in lighting by incandescence, for deadening piston strokes, attenuating the irregularities in speed, and covering accidental stoppages.—E. Scientific American Supplement, No. 455, September 20, 1884 He tried to read what signs there were, the faint flux of incandescence, feeling called but never sure, taking what nourishment he could, for three days more. Oberheim (Voices) And he recognised assorted lights of the "profession," masculine and feminine; and one or two beautiful meteors that were falling athwart the underworld, leaving fading trails of incandescence in their jewelled wake. The Common Law I grasp it, and a platinum button mounted in it is brought to vivid incandescence. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency Boric anhydride is raised to a most vivid incandescence by fluorine, the experiment being rendered very beautiful by the abundant white fumes of the trifluoride which are liberated. Scientific American Supplement, No. 832, December 12, 1891 I pass the current, and those who are close may see the bright sparks of carbon raised to incandescence by the impact of the molecular stream. Scientific American Supplement, No. 795, March 28, 1891 In art the motive power is heat always; some drive their engines by means of boiling emotion, others by the incandescence of intellectual passion. Since Cézanne Neither sanctity nor intellect nor moral enthusiasm, though they be intensified to the point of incandescence, can make up for a want of nature. Emerson and Other Essays The consequence is that the further is forced the incandescence the more work, comparatively, is performed on the gas, and the less on the electrode. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency A few require heating, when a similar decomposition occurs, often accompanied by incandescence, as in case of chromium sesquichloride. Scientific American Supplement, No. 832, December 12, 1891 In a few minutes we were hanging at two thousand feet over an oblong block of incandescence in the centre of the little town. A Diversity of Creatures The ocean of flame which surrounds the sun is gaseous matter—or a sort of ocean of air, in a state of incandescence. Melbourne House, Volume 1 These wandering bodies carry in themselves the principle of their own incandescence. The Moon-Voyage Without much reflecting one would think that in pushing so far the incandescence of the electrode it would be instantly volatilized. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency Silence fell, now, as they watched the roaring, ever-mounting flames that, whipped by the breeze, crashed upward in long and cadenced tourbillions of white, of awful incandescence. The Air Trust His imagination, whatever his zeal might do in these different surroundings, would not come to the old point of incandescence. Contemporary American Novelists (1900-1920) White-hot fire ribboned back and away, shredded into little, whirling gusts of incandescence that dissolved in black smoke. The Flying Legion Because white is incandescence in the highest degree. Delsarte System of Oratory The higher the incandescence of the photosphere the more it approaches in conductivity to that of the electrode, and the more, therefore, the solid and the gas form one conducting body. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency Flesh would crisp to nothing, solid stone would crumble, metal would gutter and run down, under that awful incandescence. The Air Trust And through the kindling darkness the sinister boom—boom! of the guns never ceased, and the shells continued to mount, curve, and fall, streaking the night with golden incandescence. Ailsa Paige It cast the night back upon them, utterly hiding and obliterating the incandescence of the sun that rose behind it. The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth This value of the incandescence lamp I can use as an ordinate to a curve, the scale number which marks the position of the color in the spectrum being the abscissa. Scientific American Supplement, No. 595, May 28, 1887 In experience it has been demonstrated that in such a globe a refractory body of a given bulk is more easily brought to incandescence than when otherwise shaped bulbs are used. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency In the welter of incandescence, where now only the stone chimney stood—and this, too, was already cracking and swaying—Brevard had found his tomb, together with the two Air Trust spies. The Air Trust McDunn's guns spirted great lumps of incandescence; the fuses of the shells in the sky showered the darkness with swarming sparks. Ailsa Paige It was a reddish incandescence which increased by degrees, a decided proof that the projectile was shifting toward it and not falling normally on the surface of the moon. From the Earth to the Moon; and, Round the Moon To the lay mind it would seem that this must have been THE obvious device to make in order to obtain electric light by incandescence of carbon or other material. Edison, His Life and Inventions An electrode lasts much longer when kept at incandescence by currents, or impulses, obtained from a high-frequency alternator, which rise and fall more or less harmonically, than by impulses obtained from a disruptive discharge coil. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency She straightened—her arms swept out and the writhing vine, with its tendrilled heads of ruby bloom, five flames of misty incandescence, leaped into the faces of the soldiers now close upon us. The Moon Pool Deeper than this their gaze passed thin flakes of incandescence, till it plunged into a bottomless medium of soft green fire. The Woodlanders Below, in the little valley, the resplendent colourations of the million flowers, roses, lilies, hyacinths, carnations, violets, glowed like incandescence in the golden light of the rising moon. The Octopus : A story of California Eight forms of electric lamps using infusible earthy oxides and brought to high incandescence in vacuo by high potential current of several thousand volts; same character as impingement of X-rays on object in bulb. Edison, His Life and Inventions Higher incandescence is equivalent to a quicker vibration; that means more light from the same material, and that, again, means more economy. Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency Through the water tiny gleams of phosphorescence began to dart, sparkles and coruscations of pale incandescence. The Moon Pool The incandescence of an intelligence coldly dispassionate, quick and shrewd, lighted those dark eyes. The False Faces Further Adventures from the History of the Lone Wolf Over all flared the pallid incandescence of the auroras. A Deal in Wheat and Other Stories of the New and Old West The above are sufficient to illustrate the direct clearness of judicial decision on Edison's position as the founder of the art of electric lighting by incandescence. Edison, His Life and Inventions Past the Rialto, the glittering front of the Astor, the jewelled magnificence of Times Square … a gorgeous alley of incandescence ahead…. The Beautiful and Damned A Midsummer Night's Work The dense and total darkness was broken in one place, and one only, by a plateful of light proceeding from a tiny bulb of incandescence in its centre. Mr. Justice Raffles She felt herself confronting God at home in His white incandescence, His fire settling on her like the Holy Spirit. The Trespasser All those that we shall describe are based on the incandescence of a platinum wire. Scientific American Supplement, No. 362, December 9, 1882 This horseshoe of carbonized paper seemed incapable to resist mechanical shocks and to maintain incandescence for any considerable length of time. Edison, His Life and Inventions Though convenient, the phrase is a mere convention, for all artificial illuminants, even including the electric light, which exhibit a useful degree of intensity depend on the same principle of incandescence. Acetylene, the Principles of Its Generation and Use A Practical Handbook on the Production, Purification, and Subsequent Treatment of Acetylene for the Development of Light, Heat, and Power It was first produced by heating with the current to incandescence a fine platinum wire. Steam, Steel and Electricity Through the heated air already verberated a strange roar as the forest-fire leaped up the opposite hillside in one clear lick of incandescence. Darkness and Dawn We have said that we make use exclusively of a platinum wire raised momentarily to incandescence by the passage of an electric current. Scientific American Supplement, No. 362, December 9, 1882 The lamp must be durable, capable of being easily and safely handled by the public, and one that would remain capable of burning at full incandescence and candle-power a great length of time. Edison, His Life and Inventions The method in question is lighting by so-called air-gas used for raising mantles to incandescence in upturned or inverted burners of the Welsbach-Kern type. Acetylene, the Principles of Its Generation and Use A Practical Handbook on the Production, Purification, and Subsequent Treatment of Acetylene for the Development of Light, Heat, and Power The phenomenon of incandescence without oxygen seems peculiar to these lights alone. Steam, Steel and Electricity The sky became of a thick darkness,... interrupted only by flashes of light which the lava reverberated, by the bloody gliding of the thunderbolts, by the incandescence of enormous projectiles, thrown to an incommensurable highness.... Roman Holidays, and Others His eyes were centres of incandescence, while the meagre supply of hair he grew bristled redly out from beside his ears like ill-ordered spears. Life at High Tide With the best vacuum that he could then get by means of the ordinary air-pump, the carbons would last, at the most, only from ten to fifteen minutes in a state of incandescence. Edison, His Life and Inventions The Tower of Jewels then glows with a soft mellow red, less brilliant, but warmer and more colorful than its incandescence later on. The Jewel City Whether his eyes were actually shooting forth flame, I couldn't tell you, but there appeared to me to be a distinct incandescence. Right Ho, Jeeves There are no loud talkers, no scandal-mongers, no sanguine souls who get into a state of incandescence during prayers or sermons here. Our Churches and Chapels Their Parsons, Priests, & Congregations Being a Critical and Historical Account of Every Place of Worship in Preston The instant that the psychical current reaches and awakens her, crack!--a minute point of blue incandescence tips the tentacle. The Green Mouse This time the carbon strip burned at incandescence for about eight minutes. Edison, His Life and Inventions A radiant incandescence of great power lit the arch and flooded it with light that poured through the cathedral windows of the Most High. Man Size This was in itself nothing extraordinary, and indicated only the activity of those within, but while I looked an irregular patch of incandescence suddenly splashed the cliff opposite. The Mystery FILAMENT.—The wire in a vacuum tube that is heated to incandescence and which throws off electrons. The Radio Amateur's Hand Book Suddenly it was tipped with a blue flash of incandescence. The Green Mouse It is not surprising, therefore, that in September of that year, when Edison turned his thoughts actively toward electric lighting by incandescence, his early experiments should be in the line of carbon as an illuminant. Edison, His Life and Inventions It was exactly as though her fury, a generated incandescence of rage, had burned into a perceptible flare. Cytherea A moment later a wave of lava, white-hot, red, iridescent, cooling to a black crust cracked in incandescence, rolled majestically out over the grassy plain. The Mystery Nor could it either theoretically or practically have been otherwise, for the relations between the two countries had reached a point where they generated a friction which caused incandescence automatically. The Emancipation of Massachusetts Their burning in the air is not difficult to explain; it is the heat of friction which so quickly brings them to incandescence. Curiosities of the Sky He also placed some of these refractory metals directly in the circuit, bringing them to incandescence, and used silicon in powdered form in glass tubes placed in the electric circuit. Edison, His Life and Inventions Your glory seethed the suns to incandescence, You are flame—flame! Perpetual Light : a memorial Almost to the zenith the sky flames up from the sea,—one tremendous orange incandescence, rapidly deepening to vermilion as the sun dips. Two Years in the French West Indies The two on the eastern and western rims of the world were almost of a size and color, very huge and alike, except that one dazzled the eyes—the difference between incandescence and reflection. Red Fleece As it plunged into the swarm the friction of the innumerable collisions with the meteors heated its surface to incandescence, and being of vast size it then became visible to us as a new star. Curiosities of the Sky This lamp, when put on the circuit, lighted up brightly to incandescence and maintained its integrity for over forty hours, and lo! the practical incandescent lamp was born. Edison, His Life and Inventions It has been suggested that the warmth of the Tertiary climate was simply the effect of the residual heat of a globe cooling from incandescence, but many facts disprove this. Ragnarok : the Age of Fire and Gravel Then it turned to white and dropped like a string of incandescence, touching Harry on the head. The Blind Spot It was subsequently found that a hard skin could be given to the filament by "flashing" it—that is to say, heating it to incandescence by the current in an atmosphere of hydrocarbon gas. The Story of Electricity My dazzled sight cleared, glare and blaze and searing incandescence took form, became ordered. The Metal Monster To increase the voltage or pressure materially, while permitting some saving in the cost of conductors, would enormously increase the difficulties of making a sufficiently high resistance conductor to secure light by incandescence. Edison, His Life and Inventions And, on this last hypothesis, is this brightness owing to a kind of phosphorescence, or to the state of incandescence of the nucleus? Ragnarok : the Age of Fire and Gravel A flash of light, a thread of incandescence, a quiver—and they were gone. The Blind Spot Most of these are based on the principle of incandescence, the current heating a fine wire or other conductor of high resistance in passing through it. The Story of Electricity And in its exact center, shining forth as though it opened into a place of pale azure incandescence was another rectangular Cyclopean portal. The Metal Monster Dismissing from his mind quickly the commercial impossibility of using arc lights for general indoor illumination, he arrived at the conclusion that an electric lamp giving light by incandescence was the solution of the problem. Edison, His Life and Inventions The site of the mill, the squares where the piles of lumber had stood, glowed incandescence over which already a white film was forming. The Blazed Trail I could see the outlines of his figure and a weird, single string of incandescence. The Blind Spot Explosives, such as gunpowder and guncotton, are also ignited by the electric spark from an induction coil or the incandescence of a wire. The Story of Electricity About the bases of the defenders flashed blinding bursts of incandescence—like those which had heralded the flight of the Flying Thing dropping before Norhala's house. The Metal Monster The carbon was lighted up to incandescence, and, of course, oxidized and disintegrated immediately. Edison, His Life and Inventions There was present what is not observable in towns—incandescence. Desperate Remedies Her arms were outstretched to the dimming form of Harry and the incandescence. The Blind Spot Ashes and pumice heated to incandescence were blown through the air. The Lani People A flash of blue incandescence and a slender pillared shape leaped from the floor; became a coronet, a whirling, flashing halo toward which streamed up the flaming tendrilings of her tresses. The Metal Monster Not only were the ordinary strip paper carbons tried again, but tissue-paper coated with tar and lampblack was rolled into thin sticks, like knitting-needles, carbonized and raised to incandescence in vacuo. Edison, His Life and Inventions And Mulligan Jacobs’s face thrust another inch closer on its twisted neck, while all his concentrated rage seemed on the verge of bursting into incandescence. The Mutiny of the Elsinore Then, down from that blinding radiance there crept, rather than dropped a single thread of incandescence, vivid, with a tinge of the colour from which it had surged. The Blind Spot The glance was no longer a glance, a look, it was a flame, or rather, a divine incandescence, a radiance, communicating life and mind,—it was thought made visible. The Brotherhood of Consolation For a moment I saw nothing—then a tiny spot of white incandescence shone forth at the lower edge of the great spot. The Metal Monster Zelie had now reached her highest point of incandescence, and was really alarming. The Lesser Bourgeoisie The sun, again, generates heat so rapidly, owing to his great energy of contraction, and loses it so slowly, owing to his great size, that his surface is always kept in a state of incandescence. The Unseen World and Other Essays Then the dot of blue—a string of incandescence; just as had been spoken. The Blind Spot The eye and the triangle filled the heavens, sent out flickering rays, glowed to a blinding incandescence, seemed to be speaking words of thunder that were nevertheless inaudible. Soul of a Bishop Close to the base of the vast facade it landed with a flashing of blue incandescence. The Metal Monster After verifying, varying, and expanding the results of Bancalari, he submitted to examination heated air-currents, produced by platinum spirals placed in the magnetic field, and raised to incandescence by electricity. Faraday as a Discoverer It may, therefore, be admitted that physical evidence has at length been obtained, demonstrating the existence of vast masses of matter in a gaseous condition, and at a temperature of incandescence. History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science Karenin looked blinking at the last quivering rim of incandescence, and shaded his eyes and became silent. The World Set Free May we not suppose that masses of it were produced during the incandescence of the earth, and that, when the waters descended, they passed through a series of changes which culminated in living plasm? The Story of Evolution It was shown subsequently by Dulong and Thenard that even a platinum wire, when perfectly cleansed, may be raised to incandescence by its action on a jet of cold hydrogen.
