Second referee's report by Cecil Henry Desch, on a paper 'Numerical relationships in binary metallic systems' by D Stockdale

Reference number: RR/56/125

Date: June 1935

Description

Sectional Committee: Engineering Sciences

Not recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. Still finds the paper unconvincing, despite the omissions. Refers to work of William Lawrence Bragg. Does not understand the meaning of the ratios. States that John Edward Lennard-Jones has seen the paper.

[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London']
