Abstract
DB. R. W. Berriman, of the Kodak Research Laboratories, Wealdstone, Harrow, Middlesex, has recently received the following telegram. “In the name of those participating in the International Congress on Cosmic Radiation at Como we wish to send you our great appreciation of the important contribution you have made to the development of the photographic method of detecting charged particles. Amsterdam, J. Clay ; Berkeley, R. B. Brode; Bristol, C. F. Powell ; Brussels, Occhialini ; Chicago, Marcel Schein ; London, G. P. Thomson ; Manchester, P. M. S. Blackett; New York, J.. J. Rabi ; Paris, Leprince-Ringuet, P. Cuer ; Romef G. Bernardini ; Zurich, P. Scherrer."Dr. Berriman has been closely concerned with the development of the Kodak NT4 plate, a photographic plate which is widely used for research in cosmic radiation and which is. capable of detecting any known charged particle -(see Nature, 161, 432 (1948); 162, 992 (1948)).
