What the paper says!?This page is still in progress.
This is the paper that first observed continuous spectra from planetary nebulae in the visible range (first continuous-spectra from reflection nebulae were by Slipher[1]) and as due to the two-photon mechanism, although the origin remained uncertain until the work of Spitzer and Greenstein.[2]
