The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Hugh Longbourne Callendar, on a paper 'Saturated solutions' by Randal Thomas Mowbray Rawdon Berkeley

Reference number: RR/16/147

Date: April 1904

Description

Sectional Committee: Physics and Chemistry

Not recommended for publication in the Philosophical Transactions. Thinks it would be better to wait for parts two and three of the complete paper before publication. The determinations of density and solubility though meritorious, present little of novelty or interest in themselves, and do not differ markedly from previous work. The interest of the work, if any, would lie in the theoretical discussion and coordination of results contemplated in parts two and three.

[Published in the Philosophical Transactions A, 1904].

Endorsed on verso as received 20 April 1904.
