1), from Gr. ?.]
1. A Greek measure of length, being the chief one used for
itinerary distances, also adopted by the Romans for
nautical and astronomical measurements. It was equal to
600 Greek or 625 Roman feet, or 125 Roman paces, or to 606
feet 9 inches English. This was also called the Olympic
stadium, as being the exact length of the foot-race
course at Olympia. --Dr. W. Smith.
2. Hence, a race course; especially, the Olympic course for
foot races.
3. A kind of telemeter for measuring the distance of an
object of known dimensions, by observing the angle it
subtends; especially (Surveying), a graduated rod used to
measure the distance of the place where it stands from an
instrument having a telescope, by observing the number of

parallel wires (stadia wires) in the field of view of the

PalladiumPalladium Pal*la"di*um, n. [NL.] (Chem.)
A rare metallic element of the light platinum group, found
native, and also alloyed with platinum and gold. It is a
silver-white metal resembling platinum, and like it permanent
and untarnished in the air, but is more easily fusible. It is
unique in its power of occluding hydrogen, which it does to
the extent of nearly a thousand volumes, forming the alloy
Pd2H. It is used for graduated circles and verniers, for
plating certain silver goods, and somewhat in dentistry. It
was so named in 1804 by Wollaston from the asteroid Pallas,
which was discovered in 1802. Symbol Pd. Atomic weight,
106.2. PalladiumizedPaladiumize Pala"di*um*ize, v. t. [imp. & p. p.

A flattened stem or branch which more or less resembles a
leaf, and performs the function of a leaf as regards
respiration and assimilation. RadiumRadium Ra`di*um, n. [NL., fr. L. radius ray.] (Chem.)
An intensely radioactive metallic element found (combined) in
minute quantities in pitchblende, and various other uranium
minerals. Symbol, Ra; atomic weight, 226.4. Radium was
discovered by M. and Mme. Curie, of Paris, who in 1902
separated compounds of it by a tedious process from
pitchblende. Its compounds color flames carmine and give a
characteristic spectrum. It resembles barium chemically.
Radium preparations are remarkable for maintaining themselves
at a higher temperature than their surroundings, and for
their radiations, which are of three kinds: alpha rays, beta
rays, and gamma rays (see these terms). By reason of these
rays they ionize gases, affect photographic plates, cause
sores on the skin, and produce many other striking effects.
Their degree of activity depends on the proportion of radium
present, but not on its state of chemical combination or on
external conditions.The radioactivity of radium is therefore
an atomic property, and is explained as result from a
disintegration of the atom. This breaking up occurs in at
least seven stages; the successive main products have been
studied and are called
radium emanation or exradio,
radium A,
radium B,
radium C, etc. (The emanation is a heavy gas, the later
products are solids.) These products are regarded as
unstable elements, each with an atomic weight a little
lower than its predecessor. It is possible that lead is
the stable end product. At the same time the light gas
helium is formed; it probably consists of the expelled
alpha particles. The heat effect mentioned above is
ascribed to the impacts of these particles. Radium, in
turn, is believed to be formed indirectly by an
immeasurably slow disintegration of uranium. radium ARadium Ra`di*um, n. [NL., fr. L. radius ray.] (Chem.)
