Abstract
IF a conducting liquid is placed in a constant magnetic field, every motion of the liquid gives rise to an E M. F. which produces electric currents. Owing to the magnetic field, these currents give mechanical forces which change the state of motion of the liquid. Thus a kind of combined electromagnetic-hydro-dynamic wave is produced which, so far as I know, has as yet attracted no attention.
