✦ Synopsis
To reach complete agreement between theory and experiment may be a matter of some difficulty, but it is not without its physical interest. It is true that even complete agreement would not confirm the value of ~ so long as the hypotheses were themselves less certain .than the electronic charge; but it would confirm the hypotheses, thereby contributing something to our knowledge of the mechanism of electron emission.
On the Origin and Nature of the Long-range Particles Observed with Sources of Radium C. SIR ERNEST RUTHERFORD and J. CHADWICK. (Phil. Mag., Sept., I924.)--It has been known for some years that, when s-rays from radium C pass through nitrogen and oxygen, there are present certain swift particles that have a range of 9 cm. in air. These had what the authors designate a
