where the abbreviation rev. denotes that the argument to which it is attached has
its sign reversed in the third column of arguments : thus Arg. 63 (Lubbock), it is
- (2t - 277) which is equal to 2g' + 2<0'. As the formula contains only cosines, there
is, of course, no change in the sign of the coefficient.
On comparing with Lubbock’s value, I find some differences, which are as follows :—
It will be recollected that R (Lubbock) = - to' ï - il, so that the signs of the
coefficients of ÎÎ are to be reversed in order to deduce the corresponding coefficients
QS
of R. The Nos. refer to Lubbock’s arguments, and the exterior factor to' —^ or to' ^
is disregarded^).

1 I have been favoured with a note from Sir J. W. Lubbock, confirming my values of the coefficients
for the arguments 8, 18, 58, 101 and 123.—Added 15th Feb. 1859, A. C.
