Abstract

IN further experiments on -rays excited by neutrons, we have recently measured a change of the number of kicks of a counter as a function of the thickness of the water sheets, 10 cm. × 15 cm., in cross-section, inserted between the neutron source and the counter. The experimental method was similar to that used in previous work1, with certain improvements.
