| Title | Letter from W C D [William Cecil Dampier] Whetham, Upwater Lodge, Cambridge, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Dampier [formerly Whetham]; Sir William Cecil Dampier (1867-1952); British scientist and agriculturalist |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 6 November 1905 |
| Description | He sends their 'Long Vacation work', hoping it will be accepted for the Proceedings. He has a paper from Lord Berkeley on osmotic pressure as determined from vapour pressures, and a theoretical note from [Will] Spens on the thermodynamic relations between the two quantities. This is a simpler paper than Larmor saw last. The respective authors are in a hurry for publication, fearing anticipation as there is a paper by [Louis] Kahlenberg on the same subject. Whetham asks if Larmor can get the papers refereed for the Proceedings [of the Royal Society]. He asks when his own paper is likely to come out. |
