EXPERIMENT

on Third Programme

A series of scientific case-histories
6:The Edinburgh Spectrophon*by TOM COTTRELL
Professor of Inorganic and Physical Chemistry, University of Edinburgh
' I'm a chemist, by education and by interest. I want to know about molecular behaviour, which is why I thought of ... this experiment.' The experiment led Professor Cottrell away from chemistry, and into applied electronics; he had to seek help. ' But on the whole, microphone experts aren'interested in measuring a gas squeaking when it's lit up.'
The Computer Botanist, by Prof. W. T. Williams ; Dec. 3
