| Title | Letter from O J L [Oliver Joseph Lodge], 2 Grove Park, Liverpool, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Lodge; Sir Oliver Joseph (1851-1940); British physicist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 26 April 1895 |
| Description | He discusses Larmor's views on a spinning magnet, thinking he is not right is saying it urges positive electrical charge from pole to pole; positive electricity is urged from equator to poles, he believes. Lodge gives his own idea on the phenomenon and discusses this, showing experimental apparatus. He concludes that the facts sustain Larmor's first letter rather than his second, but doubts that the experiments are as crucial as he hoped when he tried them. |
