The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by John Desmond Bernal, on a paper 'The lattice spacings of solid solutions of different elements in aluminium' by H J Axon and William Hume-Rothery

Reference number: RR/70/14

Date: 1947

Description

Sectional committee: Chemistry

Recommended for publication in Proceedings. The paper is important but in view of the paper shortage, it should be presented in a more economical way. It would be interesting to add a discussion on the data in light of Pauling's recent theory of metallic valencies.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 1948].
