| Title | Letter from James Dewar, 1 Scroope Terrace, Cambridge, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Dewar; Sir James (1842-1923); British chemist and physicist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 19 February 1910 |
| Description | Dewar cannot make out the result of an experiment with sulphur vapour from that day. Nothing definite was observed. When [Humphrey Owen] Jones took the liquid air away from the charcoal, there was a violent detonation. If this was S or S2 it seems to be remarkable and Dewar cannot understand such explosive power |
