Title | Letter from Alexander Muirhead, FRS, The Lodge, Shortlands, to James Mackenzie Davidson |
Date | 27 July 1904 |
Description | Apologises for having failed to return the tube of radium before now. Notes that he would like to borrow it again when Mackenzie Davidson returns as a standard for the calibration of the Wilson electrometer he has. Asks if Mackenzie Davidson has J. [Joseph] J. [John] Thomson's book 'Conduction of Electricity through gases' and [Ernest] Rutherford's on Radioactivity. Notes that Rutherford's is more useful than [Frederick] Soddy's. Suggests that when Mackenzie Davidson return they do some work together on radioactivity. |
