Mercury and Helium
Abstract
IT is known that under some conditions not clearly defined or understood, mercury and helium may become so intimately associated that the separation of the one from the other is difficult. According to prevalent views, helium is a highly inert gas, and is therefore incapable of combining with other elements; hence it appears that helium can in some way not known act as a ``carrier'' of mercury.
