Excerpt from A Magneton Theory of the Structure of the Atom: With Two Plates The non-electrical bond between atoms, such as may be supposed to exist in the Hydrogen molecule, is an important factor in Chemical union; but no plausible suggestion as to its nature has ever been made, and the failure to account for this bond is one of the greatest defects of the electronic theory of matter as it now stands. N ow the present theory is the outcome Of an attempt made some years ago to remedy this defect even at the expense of a considerable departure from accepted fundamental ideas: it seemed then to the author that the idea of replacing the classical electron by the mag neton here described, which makes the bond in question magnetic, was less revolutionary than any other that could definitely attain the end in view; and the contents of this paper bear witness to its subsequent fertility. In postulating this magneton for chemical reasons, the phenomena Of magnetism and radiation were of course not lost sight of. In the field of magnetism, the magneton has been at once and automatic ally as strikingly successful as in chemistry - as indeed we ought to require it to be. As regards its application to the phenomena of radiation, not much can be said at present; but the magneton seems d priori a promising conception here, and its possibilities have been looked into already by Dr. D. L. Webster in a paper on Planck's Radiation Formula and the Classical Electrodynamics (amer. Acad., Jan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
