DescriptionLoks forward to seeing Bondi on the 12th. Gold is sure that very massive condensations occur as a result of star cluster collapse. The subject has been 'perverted' by many workers in the field. The relaxtion time constants 'are a problem whose mathematical complexity has so far defeated people'. Discusses his ideas on the subject. 'You ask me about my nationality. I am still British, mainly from inertia'.
