Reference number: RR/35/119

Description

Sectional committee: Physics

Not recommended for publication. The paper seems more like a 'PhD thesis or perhaps a year book review', than a serious scientific paper. It doesn't add anything to existing knowledge of the subject.

[Not published].

Endorsed on verso as received 9 July 1927.
