"The head Of an ordinary pin

this will give a better idea OF the thin
ness of this coating Of caesium. If 1t
should be more than one atom deep
the tube would not operate as ef-
fectively"
The apparatus is operated by bat
teries Variations in the intensity OF
daylight change the flow of electrons
within the cell and this in turn causes
variation in the movements Of the re-
cording needle in the meter. The mark
ings of the needle on a roll Of paper
can be interpreted into light intensi-
