The ZOdiacal Light.

The cause of the luminous phenOme-
non known as the zodiacal light has
long been the subject Of speculation.
ana numerous hypothesis have been
suggested to account for it. A CORES
pondent of Cosmos les N0ndes regards
the entire phenomenon as one OF the
reflection of light What we observe
is nothing but the reflection of that part
of the earth which is illuminated shortly
before the sun rises and after it sets. In
order to understand this We must As
sumo that the earth is surrounded fer
4 certain distance by comparatively
dense envelope of gas, beyond which
the latter exists in state OF great attcn-
uation. We therefore have two media
Df different density which influence the
rays OF light in the we'll known way.
refracting them up to a certain limiting
angle Of incidence, beyond which total
rejection takes place.
If we imagine the sun q little below
the horizon. q part Of the earth directly
in front Of us will reflect Tie RAYS of the
sun at q very obtuse angle: these rays,
meeting TIE boundary OF tnc media al {;
very obtuse angle, will be totally re-
ilecied, and it is these totally reflected
Gays which we see.
Tnis explains the appearance Of the
light in the shape of cone whose line
is always inclined in the direction OF
he ecliptic. and whose base is toward
the sun; it also accounts forthe fact that
the changes observed in its appearance
,olloW reverse order in the evening
from that in the morning. The reason
why the cone is longer in the evening
han in the morning is that the layer OF
icnse atmosphere is expanded by reason
# its exposure to the suns radiation
through the entire day. whereas in the
morning the reverse is the case.-
