| Creator | Huggins; Sir William (1824-1910); British astronomer |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | 27 June 1907 |
| Description | Huggins is 'loath' that [Thomas Edward] Thorpe should have Hardy's 50mg of radium, as he claims he would get it down to next to nothing through too much purification. Huggins notes quantities of radium for the experiments. He then discusses the 'at least two effectual courses of wave-shift in sun', on which he elaborates further. He then looks at the photograph of hydrogen and potassium. |
