In the dissertation, the design was briefly reviewed of 16 various
models of oscillographs for experimental, geophysical investigations
which were developed by the author or under his direction. Some of
these are series-manufactures and apply also in other branches of
science and engineering. Particular attention is devoted to the
design of the individual assemblies of the oscillographs. Standard
assemblies include typer 6 galvanometers, mounted into blocks

engines, speed regulators. All the oscillographs developed by
the Institute of Physics of the Earth, which is pioneering in this
field in the Soviet Union, can.be sub-divided into the following
three groups: oscillographs for recording short-duration processes
with high speeds of the film; oscillographs for recording long-
duration of occasional processes at relatively low speeds of the
filih~ strip; universal oscillographs for recording various proces-
ses within a wide range of speeds of the film strip. Oscillographs
intended for recording long-duration and occasional phenomena
(earthquakes) and designed for recording with a speed of 0.1 to
2 cm/sec for moving the film; spring-operated mechanisms proved
advantageous in this case and therefore it was necessary to develop
special speed-regulators. The presence of spring-operated
mechanisms and galvanometers grouped into a block with a common

particularly important in regions with difficult access.
Universal, portable oscillographs represent the widest group
amongst oscillographs produced in the Institute;: they are
small and light and therefore convenient for expeditions; they
are suitable not only for recording geophysical, but any other
phenomena which can be.transformed into an electric current or,
voltage. The oscillographs rkO&-14 M, MG-12 M and iIC05-9 are
among the best produced in the Soviet Union as well as in other
countries. The developed, fundamental, typical assemblies and
unification of the main circuits enabled rationalising the
designof the oscillographs and also simplifying and covering
the cost of the development and manufacture of new mo*ls adapted
for given conditions. First, the author tonsiders the method

ometer with a ",continuous extension (pull)" and a method of

results of experimental investigations which indicate the possi-

conditions of optimum electro-magnetic and liquid damping of

presented of the kinematics of oscillographs and of film adaptors
and the phenomenon of shock was considered when switching on
film adaptors designed for high speeds. Formulae are derived
which permit calculation of the impact force and of the time
necessary for reaching a given speed. A new type of simple,
compact and reliable gear box was developed and the method of
its calculation evolved. Other mechanisms were also considered,

oscillographs. A method of calculation is proposed of spring-

useful work from the energy stored in the springs. The problem
is considered of ensuring uniform movement of the film strip
and various designs were developed of speed regulators with
low-rated r.p.m. which are capable of.taking up a considerable
excess moment generated by the springs. A method of calcul-
ation is presented of a radial-action, centrifugal regulator.
All the.described oscillographs were used in geophysical
investigations, i.e. in studying the physics of earthquakes
by systematic,recording of weak, local tremors, development of
a new method of deep seismic-sounding of the Earth's crust,
study of the vibrations of soils and of.buildings caused by
explosions and earthquakes, development of new, progressive
methods of seismic and electro-magnetic prospectingof minerals
study of atmospheric phenomena, etc. The oscillographs
developed by the author are widely used, not only for geo-
physical investigations, but also in scientific establishments
and undertakings of various ministries and the manufacture of
,.rd0ke5e instruments does not satisfy requirements.

The dissertation represents the result of many years of study
of the clear, daytime sky.- The observations were carried out
in twelve locations at various altitudes above the sea,
various climatic, meteorological and synoptic conditions. The
observations were carried out mainly during high-transparency
of the atmosphere in the visual raiEp of the spectrum in the
absence of asnow cover. In the investigations 'two instru-
ments,designed by V.G. Fesenkov were used; one of these was a
visual photometer of the daytime sky intended for measuring
the brightness of the firmament; the other was a photo-

to these rays. The dissertation contains a certain formula
of the brightness of the sky,taking into consideration only
the brightness of the first order and derived on the assumption
of a,"flat" Earth ahd giving some conclusions derived on the
basis of this formula. For a certain coefficient, of trans-
parency of the atmosphere, the brightness of the sky at any
point is represented by derivation of two functions of which
one is the function of the diffubian of light and the other is a
function of the zenith distances of.the.sun and of the observed
point of the sky. Og changing of the zenith distances of the
sun z from 90 to 0 , the brightness of the sky on the
almucantar of the sun increases firstj reaching a maximum for
a certain value of z and then decreases. A method is also
proposed of determining the brightness of the clear daylight
sky at any point based on measuring the brightness along the
almucantar of the sun and of 5-6 points of the firmament located
at various zenith'.distances. This method permits determination

of the brightness at any other point from the observed bright-
ness of the sky. The'method consists essentially af excluding
from -the observed brightnesses local indicatrices of ft (WTus]Dn
and introducing another one which relates to the-spot where
it is desired to determine the brightness of the sky; for
this purpose, it is necessary to measure.at that point the
brightness of the sky along the almutantar of the sun. A
necessary condition thereby is 'that the transparency coeffic-
ients of the atmosphere be equ. 1 in both points. The theoret-
a i
ical brightness was also considered, taking into.consideration
the multiple scattering of light in the case of a spherical
indicatrix of scattering and a comparison is made of this
brightness with the one observed at an angular distance of the
sun of 57 - 60 For solving the integral equation of the
theory of the diffusion of light, the approximate method of
Ye-S. Kuznetsov was used which proved sufficiently accurate.

.shown that there is no w4ll-deflned relation between the coeff-
icient of scattering iL for small scattering angles j& and
the coefficient of transparency or, respectively,-the optical
thickness of the atmosphere. Such a well-deCined dependence
does exist for diffusion angles oapproaching 60u. Thus, the
diffusion of light near -4 = 60 does not-depend on the prop-
erties of the d if fus ion particles. It is shown that the
diffusion of light ih the Earth's atmosphere cannot be attrib-
uted to a medium particle with some definite effective radius.
The effective radius of the diffusion particle changes with
the difftLsion angle. The dependence of the diffusion of light
in the gar~hls atmosphere on the wavelength for the visual part
of the spectrum can be expressed by the relation A = c%-n I
representing a generalisation of the known&VIdgh formula where

distances to the sun (the halo surrounding the sun); the
number n, is dependent on the wavelength and in some parts of
the spectrum may become negative. This explains thevarious
colour shadings of the halo surrounding the sun. A method is
proposed of determining the indicatrix of the atmosphere which
is not affected by the influence of the multiple diffusion of
light. This method permits obtaining the indicatrix solely from
the observed data andconsists in determining by two differing
methods the optical thickness of the atmosphere. One method
gives optical thickness 1-1 on the basi's of measurement of the
direct solar radiation and is therefore not dependent on the
multiple diffu sion of light. In the other method, the optical
thickness is determined by measuring the brightness of the sky
and, consequently, is influenced by the multiple diffusion..
The difference between these gives an increase in the optical
thickness of the atmosphere which depends on the multiple

to the incident light flux. The author gives the formula of the
brightness of the sky, taking into consideration the multiple
diffusion and also the light reflected from the underlying
surface. The problem of stability of optical properties of the
atmosphere was -considered and existing stability criteria were
supplemented and improved by the author. It is shown, too, that
the ratio of the brightness of the sky at any point of the
almucantar of the sun to the illumination from the sun.also
gives a linear dependence on the atmosphere mass and consequently
can serve as a criterion of stability of the optical properties
of the atmosphere. rinally, methods are.described of determin-
ation of coefficients of transparency of the atmosphere from the
brightness of a clear sky, namely: a method based on the
instant of maximum brightness of the halo surrounding the sun;
a method based on the indicatrix of d if f us ion of light in the
atmosphere; a method of determining the coefficient of trans-
parency on the basis of empirical formulae.

The author attempted to make a more exact analysis of the move-
ment.of a pendulum on a mobile support with the aim of deriving
more accurate formulae and developing methods for the calculation
of the action of acceleration and inclination of the base of the
pendulum. The calculation of this action Is precisely the most
important and least clear problem in the theory of the measure-
ment of gravity forces on sea.
The author obtained a formula for the correctiQn of the inclina-
tion and acceleration of the support in the observed value of,
gravity force which is valid for accelerations below 50 91.

which depend on the periods of oscillations of the pendulum and
the accelerations.. In many cases, these terms can be dis-
regarded. The problem was formulated and solved of determining
the accelerations and the inclinations of the mounting by means
of inclination-meters and accelero-meters. Attention is drawn

pendulum instruments in a cardan suspension with a minimum
natural frequency. It is not advisable to apply a damping
device of the cardan suspension,.which is linked with the ship.
Methods were developed and investigated of evaluating the
recordings of inclination-meters and accelero-mters for obtain-
ing correction for the inclination and the acceleration and
appropriate calculations were made based on materials collected
by marine gravimetric expeditions. It is concluded that it is
in principle possible to effect pendulum measurements on surface
ships provided that the acceleration of the ship is below 20 gl;
at larger accelerations, considerable difficulties occur
associated with the determination of the accelerationsand
inclinations.

chemical phenomena taking place in rocks and other non-uniformly,
conducting bodies under the effect of an electric current. These
phenomena lead to the generation of secondary e.m.f. which
exist for some time, even after the primary current is switched

polarisation of a number of factors: the chemical composition
of the pore moisture, the 4-potential, the structure of the
specimen and its uniformity. The experiments were effected in~
quartz sand which was boiled several times in hydrochloric and
nitric acids and then washed in distilled water until the
resistance of the pore solution did not reach the resistance of
the distilled water (2 500 Qm)- It was found that the chemical
composition.of the pore moisture influenced the induced polaris-
ation only through the specific resistance and the Z -potential.
For an equal specific resistance of the specimens, the induced
polarisation will be the larger, the larger the negative
otential. In the case of a constant ;-potential, the
n uced polarisation is proportional to the specific resistance
of the specimen, but the speed of the drop does not depend on
the specific resistance. In moisture-saturated sands with a
re-charged, twin electric layer, the induced polarisation
approaches zero and does not depend on the 4-potentilal. However,

increases sharply with increasing 4-potential. On reducing
the humidity, the induced polarisation increases proportionally
with the.sDecific resistance of the specimen, but for low
humidity contents, this increase slows down, the induced
polarisation passes through a maximun and then decreases,
although the specific resistance of the specimen continues to
increase. The author has proved the existence of a certain
dependence of the induced polarisation on the degree of dis-
persion and thereby he indicated the possibility of applying
the method of.induced polarisation for.coring oil deposits
for the purpose of determining the permeabilityand the speci-
fic conductivity of rocks. He also obtained the relation
between the speed of fall of,the induced polarisation and the
degree of dispersion. leor sands, the speed of fall is the
higher the finer the sand. This result seems to favour the
view that when passing anelectric current through the specimen,

in the induced polarisation represents the total field of
the discharge of these dipoles. The fundamental relations
of induced polarisation of ion-conducting rocks were clari-
fied, starting off by taking into consideration the forces
acting on the charges of the difffidm part of the twin,
electric layer. In the equilibrium state (in the absence of
current flow), the only force maintaining the charges of the
diffusion layer around the surface is the electro-static
attraction from the charges of the fixed layer; therefore,
the surface density of,the charges of the diffusion layer at
each point of the surface equals the density of the charges
of the fixed layer. It can be assumed that on applying an
external electric field, the surface density of the charges
does not change in the fixed layer (or changes much less than
in the diffusion layer).

For many centuries, the descriptions of earthquakes mentioned
the light effects~but the-phys'ical-nature of.-the latter
was no t kn o w n.~ With the &ivelbpment of investigations
in electricity and improved instrumentation, the electrical
character of these phenomena was estabiished. Only individual
statements of hypothetic character exist on the sources of
the changes of the electrical field of the Earth. In view of
the importance of this problem of a possible relation between
the electro-magnetic and the seismic fields, the author studied
the electrical effects in rocks subjected to mechanical forces.
By means of a dynamic method, a piezo-electric effect was
observed in rocks (granite, gneiss, ciuartzites, etc.) containing

absence of orientation of the quartz grains, no piezo-electric
effect was observed. Under laboratory conditions, the exis- . ~
tence of the E effect discovered by A.G. Ivanovwas confirmed
and '.also its relation to the presence of a liquid phase
in rocks., On the basis of investigation of ideal piezo-
electric textures of quartz in accordance with the theory of
A.V. Shubnikov, it was found that from a single modification
of quartz, it is possible to form piezo-electric textures of
the first kind, type W and oo-.2 and of two shapes of
quartz, it is possible to form a texture of the type DO.M.
The possibility was elucidated of ordinating quartz-containing
rocks to piezo-electric textures of the type Do.m and also
to the symmetry class 3:2.A 'technique was developed of the

effect of the individual quartz grains. On the basis of
experimental data, the coefficient of orientation of the quartz
grains was calculated with some degree of approximation in
various rocks by means of the formula of Zheludev. Model tests
on granite blocks enabled establishment (in addition to an
elastic wave) of two types of electro-magnetic oscillations.
Oscillations of one type precede the arrival of the elastic
wave and coincide with the incident of emission, oscillations
of the other type a:be r-ecorded at about the same time as
the elastic,wave. The os Icillations of the first type-are
caused by the piezo effect of the granite block near the
emmitter of the ultra-sound., whilst oscillations of the second
type are caused by the piezo-electric effect of the,%me granite
near to the receiver. The results of these experiments can be
applied in studying the physics of earthquakes and also for
developing new methods of electric prospecting.

ABSTRACT;The authoress And her collaborat6rs carried out investigations
in Egypt (October-November 1957) in connection with the prog-
ram of the International Geophysical Year. The exgedition work-
ed in the Libyan desert south of Assuan ( (f = 23 59', ,
X = 320521) in-a distance of I km from the river Nile and
about 200 km west of' the Red S%E;. The following was found: The
optical properties of the atmosphere are very constant in the
forenoon and afternoon hours. Nevertheless, this constancy was
disturbed for several hours at about noon, after which the
atmosphere becamemore transparent than in the forenoon, a
phenomenon that is only very rarely observed in the USSR. The
aureole of,the sun was weaker in the afternoon than in the
forenoon. The atmosphere at the place where observations were

less days. A schematical drawing shows 2 scattering indicat-
rices which were determined on October 25 on the basis of
observations of.the brightness of the sky along the entire
almucantar of the sun with a zenith distance of z = 740. These
two indicatrices hardly differ at all from ench other. There
was no fine atmospheric dust, there was little moisture, and
it was probably for this reason that a green shine became
noticeable nearly every evening before sunset. The increase of
transparency in the afternoon influenced the polarization
properties of the atmosphere. The degree of polarization of the
sky by day is always less high in the afternoon than in the
forenoon. The authoress determined the direction and the
amount of polarization by Aeans of a visual photometer des-

afternoon than in the forenoon, and immediately after sunset
it roseto 60 %.A diagram shows the course of the degree of

morning to 87034' in the evening. When the light is scattered
in the first order, the direction of the oscillation plane
must be vertical to the plane of vision. In tho forenoon of
November 16, the transpark~ncy couff tcient amounted to p - 0.85,
and the difference between the measured and the theoretical
plane of oscillation remained constant (-20). In the after-
noon (p = 0.69) these two planes were in agreement. There are

investigated point of the sky is measured through a Polaroid at
3 positions B1, B 2 9 B3 at various angular'distances 4 from the

polarization, the orientation of the plane of the light
vibrations, the tolal luminosity Be and the scattering
indicatrix could be determined. Moreover, the scattering
.indicatrix could be divided into 2 components. One of them is
,the indicatrix of the scattering in natural beams, the other one$
in polarized beams. Moreover, the total scattering indicatrix
was subdivided into.2 other components: one of them corresponds
to molecular scattering, the other to aerosol scattering.
Finally, the authoress tried to separate out the degree of
polarization caused by aerosols and to subdivide the aerosol
indicatrix into 2 indicatrices which correspond to natural and
to polarized beams. A diagram shows the distribution of the
polarization degree P along the almucIntarat of the sun. The

ABSTRACT: Data are presented on the polarization of light, scattered in the day-
time at differenct points in the sky in various localities principally along the solar
almucantar. The observations showed, that at the same atmospheric optical thick-
ness, the degree of polarization (P) is approximately 10% less when dry aeIrosols
predominate over moist ones. If multiple scattering is assumed to be nonpolarized
and independent of the azimuth, then the computer degree of aerosol component
(P.) polarization is independent of atmospheric transparency. The mean value of
Pa in a location with predominantly moist aerosols was found to be greater (50.3%)

than with predominately dry aerosols (28.5%). In computing P a, molecular
anisotropy was not taken into account. which reduces the values obtained by
2-3%. It is assumed that the differences observed in the degree of polarization
are explained by the difference In the polarization proportion of dry and moist
aerosols. [Translation of abstract) (SPI

What Is Loess? Materialy po Inzh. geologil, No 3, 1953, 56-68
The aughor analyzes the ideas of L. S. Berg, who explained the origin
of loess from the viewpoint of soil-formation processes and refuted the
aeolian theory. In theformation of loess two stages are distinguished:
accumulation of fine earth (the matrix of loess), and its process of loess
form1nF. The author's orinion is that loess is formed under the humus layer
of steppe soils and Is P. conT&ent part of their profile and that loess is
