| Title | Referee's report by Piotr Leonidovich Kapitza, on a paper 'A simple method of demonstrating the paramagnetism and diamagnetism of substances in magnetic fields of low intensity' by Alexander Oliver Rankine |
| Date | January 1934 |
| Description | Sectional committee: Physics
Not recommended for publication in Proceedings. The principle of the method 'involves nothing new or original'. Even the possible improvements that the author lists don't seem to improve the paper much. The author deals with the issue of the galvanometer 'too superficially'.
[Not published].
