Referee's report by Alfred Fowler, on a paper 'Notes on the spectrum of gold' by William Mitchinson Hicks
Reference number: RR/43/60
Date: 12 January 1932
Description
Sectional committee: Physics
Not recommended for publication in its present form. The paper disregards methods of analysis that have been used successfully by other authors. His criticisms of other authors seems unjustified. The author's procedure is very arbitrary and his notations are very difficult to follow. It is doubtful that the paper could be accepted in its revised form.
[Not published].
Endorsed on verso as received 13 January 1932.
