Title | Letter from Louis T [Trenchard] More, 305 Pike Street, Cincinnati, Ohio, to [Joseph] Larmor |
Creator | More; Louis Trenchard (1870-1944); American physicist and biographer |
Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
Date | 17 November 1907 |
Description | He has wanted to write to Larmor for some time, to say how much he had enjoyed and profited by his time in Cambridge. He has been working on one or two problems and wished for Larmor's opinion on ions and 'their contrary habits'. He has gathered about 15 advanced students who listen to him on the topic, but he thinks he makes 'a hash' of Larmor's and [Joseph John] Thomson's doctrines. He thinks he will get good results from equipment they have built for measuring metal fatique and velocity of ions. He sends his reprints. He has heard nothing from Dr [Daniel Frost] Comstock, and sends good wishes to Mr. and Mrs. [Herbertt] Foxwell. |
