TitleLetter from V [Viktor von] Lang, Vienna, to [Joseph] Larmor
CreatorLang; Viktor von (1838-1921); Austrian chemist
RecipientLarmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist
Date28 December 1907
DescriptionHe thanks Larmor for two letters. He did not care for much about the report Larmor sent, but very much regretted that he was unable to come to Vienna. He would like to receive Larmor in his laboratory, as professors must leave at the age of 71 years. He writes that his laboratory is the worst in the world, as emanations come from the store of radium preparations which his colleague has heaped above Lang's lecture room.
