| Title | Manuscript, 'Magnetic properties of an impure nickel' by J [John] Hopkinson |
| Date | 1888 |
| Description | Hopkinson writes: 'The sample of nickel on which these experiments were made was supposed to be fairly pure when the experiments began. A subsequent analysis, however, showed its composition to be as follows :— The experiments comprise determinations of the curve of magnetisation at various temperatures, the magnetising force being increased, that is to say, they are confined to a determination of the ascending curve of magnetisation.'
Annotations in pencil and ink. Includes 22 pages of graphs of experimental results.
