La Radioattività

Abstract

TWO of the most noticeable features of Continental publications of a scientific character are, first, the number written in a semi-scientific manner for popular consumption, and, secondly, the variety dealing with special branches of chemistry or physics in a manner capable of being readily followed by men of science interested chiefly in other branches of these subjects. The present volume is an excellent example of the second class. The first part consists of reports on essays concerned with different subjects, and is followed by the work of Prof. Battelli and his coadjutors, to whom a prize of 2500 lire and a medal were awarded for their memoir on “The Discovery of Radio-activity and its Influence on Physical and Chemical Theory.”

La Radioattività.

A. Battelli A. Occhialini S. Chella. Pp. xxxii + xii + 438. Atti della fondazione scientifica Cagnola dalla sua istituzione in Poi. Vol. xxii. (Milano, 1909.)
