Abstract
Dr. G. W. Brindley and P. Ridley discuss the two kinds of asymmetry found in certain metals having a hexagonal structure—asymmetry of the lattice vibrations and asymmetry of the atoms. It is pointed out that in ruthenium the atomic asymmetry is of a different type from that found in zinc and cadmium.
