Referee's report by Samuel Walter Johnson Smith, on a paper 'Sources of error in the measurement of the electrical charge of colloidal particles by the method of moving boundaries: an improved method based on a direct measurement of the potential gradient across the boundary' by Jnanendra Nath Mukherjee

Reference number: RR/28/47

Date: September 1922

Description

Sectional Committee: Physics

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. The paper could have been made more concise. Suggests the aguments and reasoning be made clearer.
