Excerpt from Les Glaciers Si la glace, en se liqu???fiant, se contracte, c'est que l'ar rangement de ses atomes exige plus d'espace dans l'???tal solide que dans l'???tat liquide. Ces parties ???l???mentaires peuvent ???tre dispos???es de telle mani???re qu'il reste entre leurs angles des espaces interm???diaires plus grands, et, cet effet de dilatation ???tant produit par le refroidissement, on est conduit ??? penser qu'en emp???chant l'expansion de la masse par une pression ext???rieure, elle resterait plus longtemps ??? l'???tat liquide, c'est-???-dire que le point de fa sion serait abaiss???. Le physicien anglais Thompson a pu v???rifier ce fait en comprimant un morceau de glace entre les plaques d'une presse hydraulique. Des stries obscures se manifeslaient aussit???t dans l'image projet???e par un rayon de lumi???re qui traversait cette glace. Bien que la temp???rature e???t ???t??? maintenue ??? z???ro, ces stries indi quaient des couches liquides dont on parvenait ??? distin guer la surface en regardant obliquement dans l'int??? rieur du bloc. La cristallisation ???tait donc rendue impossible par la pression, et se r???v???lait comme la v???ri table cause de l'expansion de la glace.
