Abstract
TIME has recently been the subject of much discussion. More than a year ago my colleague, Dr. F. L. Arnot, in connexion with a cosmological theory summarized in NATURE of June 25, directed my attention to the relation between kinematic or atomic time, t, and planetary or pendulum time, τ. This may be expressed in the formula t0 being a constant of integration representing “the present age of the universe at ourselves, reckoned on the t-scale” (Milne).
