Astronomiae Physicae et Geometricae Elementa, 28 February 1698
Notes from a London meeting with Sir Isaac Newton on a revised plan for the Astronomiae physicae et geometricae elementa, (1702), Gregory's most important work. An erratum lies at the foot of this document, unrelated to it or to any of the other things on the sheet (which have their own entries in Gregory's index): a jotting about refraction, crystals, and cataracts of the eye. This is dated London, 30 May 1708.
Bayle de refractione, s.d.
A page on the apparent position of planets, in light of Descartes. "Bayle" could conceivably refer to Pierre Bayle (1647-1706), who critiqued Cartesianism once, early in his career, but Peter Bayle was not strictly known as a mathematician or an astronomer.
Calculus speculi spherici vitrei ..., c1695
A page of calculations about reflections in spherical surfaces, probably related to Catoptricae et dioptricae sphaericae elementa.
