Abstract
At the science meeting of the Physical Society at the Science Museum on December 19, the Charles Chree Medal and Prize for 1947 will be presented to Sir Edward Appleton, who will then deliver an address entitled “Geomagnetism and the Ionosphere”. Sir Edward has earned an international reputation for his work on the characteristics of the ionosphere, for which he was recently awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics for 1947 (see Nature, November 22, p. 703).
