Excerpt from The Crystelliptometer: An Instrument for the Polariscopic Analysis of Very Slender Beams of Light

The determination of the elements of elliptic vibration of light, which has been transformed from a condition of plane to one of elliptical polarization, is found to reveal so much concerning the optical nature of the agencies effecting the transformation that it becomes a matter of considerable importance to be able to make such measurements with reasonable accuracy. It so happens that the ordinary methods, which are employed for the elliptical analy sis, and most of which are too well known to need setting forth here, require a fair breadth of field, and would therefore not easily apply, for example, to a ray passing through a pin-hole.

The research presented in this paper had its origin in a problem suggested to the writer some years ago by Dr. L. P. Sieg, and was begun in 1915. It has been carried out at Coe College by means of apparatus, 'much of which was kindly loaned for the purpose by the University of Iowa.
