But the velocity of the ascending particles varies with the energy of their re- pulsion by the sun, and this again, it may be pre- sumed, with their quality. Thus multiple tails are developed when the same comet throws off, as it ap- proaches perihelion, specifically distinct substances. The long, straight ray which proceeded from the comet of 1807, for example, was doubtless made up of parti- 26 THE COSMIC LAW OF THERMAL REPULSION, cles subject to a mucli more vigorous solar repulsion than tho...se formed into the shorter, curved emanation issuing from it nearly in the same direction. In the comet of 1811 he calculated that the particles ex- pelled from the head travelled to the remote extrem- ity of the tail in eleven minutes, indicating by this enormous rapidity of movement [comparable to that of the transmission of light] the action of a force greatly more powerful than the opposing one of grav- ity." (Hist, of Ast, pp. 125, 126.) Describing Do- nati's comet, she says (p. 370) : " At Pulkowa, on the 16th of September, Winnecke observed a faint outer envelope, resembling a veil of almost evanescent tex- ture, flung somewhat widely over the head.
