The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Eric Keightley Rideal, on a paper 'The behaviour of visual purple at low temperature' by E E Broda and Charles Frederick Goodeve

Reference number: RR/68/18

Date: 1941

Description

Sectional Committee: Chemistry

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. However, if H J A Dartnall, Charles Frederick Goodeve and Richard James Lythgoe hadn't already published their first paper in the Proceedings, he would have suggested the Transactions of the Faraday Society as a more suitable place for publication.

Contains extra question - 'Is there any information contained in the paper which likely to be of value to the enemy?' Referee replies no.
