important difference between Hot-airTherapy as taught in our section on that subject and the action ofluminous heat-rays is maintained by all writers on photo-therapy, and radiant heat is not hot-air by any means. We shall now studythe scientific investigations of Dr. Guyenot of Aix-les-Bains respectingradiant heat in the years 1900-1901. Sunlight is the great type of luminous radiance which warmsbodies on which its rays fall. The heat of the sun is not conductedto us through a warmed ether 95,000,000 miles thick, but is radiated to us through cold space and generates warmth on the earth by thepotential energy of its impinging rays. Eumace heat is different.Mechanical devices (lamps in vacua) can transfomi electrical energyinto radiant-heat luminosity. Some bodies completely stop the passageof heat-rays and some stop light-rays. The first class are called Ath-ermanous and the second opaque. Some transmit heat-rays andare called Diathermanous, while bodies diaphanous to light-rays are
