TitleReferee's report by Owen Willans Richardson, on a paper 'A discussion of the effects of shape and emissivityupon the thermal radiation between a body and its surroundings' by Owen Alfred Saunders
Date1928
DescriptionSectional committee: Physics

Although the work seems correct, much of it seems so obvious that it is difficult to believe it has been overlooked so far. The paper should be referred to Ezer Griffiths or Callendar. If it hasn't been published before, it should be published in full.
