Title | Referee's report by Frank Watson Dyson, on a paper 'On the total solar eclipse, August 30, 1905' by Joseph Norman Lockyer |
Date | [July 1906] |
Description | Sectional Committee: Physics and Chemistry
Recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. Suggests a list of sections which should be omitted, and list of diagrams which should be included. Account is similar to author's previous accounts of eclipses in 1898 and 1900. Aspects of the expedition are given in too much detail, and already generally covered in the earlier accounts.
