Abstract
Similar results to those described by J. M. Cowley and M. S. Paterson in their communication in Nature1 concerning the examination of ‘Hartmann's lines’ (also known as ‘Lüders' lines’) in steel using X-ray diffraction methods were reported by me in 19272, and again in 19373 in consequence of a fuller investigation of steel and ‘duralumin’. That was the first time the result of X-ray diffraction studies of ‘Hartmann's lines’ was published, so far as I am aware. Researches on the subject of ‘Hartmann's lines’ in steel, including a study of their properties, and of which my first memoir was a part, were carried out in the Department of Metallurgy of the University of Birmingham by Mr. T. Henry Turner, Dr. J. D. Jevons and myself, being under the supervision of the first-named.
