Second letter from George Francis Fitzgerald, on a paper 'On the reflection and refraction of light at the surface of a magnetized medium' by Alfred Barnard Basset to John William Strutt, Lord Rayleigh, Secretary of the Royal Society
Reference number: RR/11/11
Date: 16 March 1891
Description
Refers to another paper by DuBois, in which he refers to Kerr's magneto-optic phenomena. This paper seems to reflect his idea that 'there is some experimental objections to explaining Kerr effects by stale effects'.
Subject: Physics
[Published in Philosophical Transactions A, 1891].
