Description

Sectional committee: Physics

Is unsure whether to recommended for publication. The paper seems straightforward but there appears to be 'so little agreement between the experimental results of different observers'. There should be some further comments on the disagreements.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 1932].

Endorsed on verso as received 31 March 1932.
