Abstract
IN NATURE for May 5, p. 600, Prof. C. V. Raman writes: “I have suggested that the viscosity of liquids and its variation with temperature may be explained on the hypothesis that the liquid state of aggregation is composite in character; that is, is composed in part of molecules rigidly attached to each other as in a solid, and in part of molecules which are relatively mobile as in the gaseous state (NATURE, April 21, P. 532)”.
