Abstract
The fading of the latent images due to protons has been compared for photographic emulsions maintained in air and in vacuum after the exposure was made. The fading in vacuum was found to be approximately 10 percent of that in air indicating a purely chemical origin for the phenomenon of fading. At the present time it is speculative whether the residual 10 percent arises from the same source in which case it could be eliminated by merely improving the vacuum, or comes from an altogether distinct process. Some suggestions are advanced concerning a possible Ag atom evaporation process.
