TitleReferee's report by Geoffrey Ingram Taylor, on a paper 'On the acoustic disturbances produced by small bodies in plane waves transmitted through water, with special reference to the single-plate direction finder' by A B Wood and F B Young
Date[April 1921]
DescriptionSectional Committee: Physics

Recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. The technical descriptions can be omitted. Suggests the authors be asked to remove many of the charts which bear little relation to the subject under investigation. The theoretical part is not treated so well, but is loathe to ask the authors to remove or modify it.

[Published in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London' A, 1921]
