Abstract
IN the course of an investigation of the kinetics of the reaction between hydrogen sulphide and oxygen at temperatures just below, and up to, that of ignition, an interesting phenomenon concerning the explosion has been observed, which, although in the light of certain recently discovered chain reactions may not be without parallel, yet seems sufficiently striking to warrant mention here.
