Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Correction for Emergent Stem of the Mercurial Thermometer
The series of fixed points and the numerical values for their temperatures adopted by the authorities of a given standardizing laboratory constitute the foundation of the standard scale of that laboratory and provide, so to speak, a certain number of base points. The definition of the scale is completed by stating the means used for interpolation between the base points in deter mining intermediate temperatures.
