I have a question for fellow color science nerds. I've been reading through Guild's original data: https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/pdf/10.1098/rsta.1932...

However, I'm having trouble understanding the meaning of the numbers in table 4. Does anyone understand all the columns there?

What I'm particularly interested in is finding the unnormalized coefficients from the color matching experiments, or some way to un-normalize those coefficients. (By "those coefficients," I mean the trichromatic coefficients u{a,b,c}_\lambda listed in table 3.) I don't know if that data is in table 4 so maybe those are two separate questions.
