Suppose it is known that the point $z_0=+38$ (or $z_0=-38$, or $\left.z_0= \pm 16\right)$ is a branch point of the function $w(z)$ expressing the roots of equation (2.8) in terms of the parameter $z$. How do the sheets of the Riemann surface of the function $w(z)$ at the point $z_0$ (more precisely, along the cuts joining the point $z_0$ to infinity; cf., Remark $$2, \$ 2.10$$ ) join?
