Abstract
IN a recent paper Harris and Jowett1 suggest an extrapolation technique for determining the solid volume percentage below detectable size in Coulter-counter analysis. The technique is based on the assumption that the Gates–Gaudin–Schuhmann or the Rosin–Rammler distribution is valid for the particles in question, and it is presupposed that, if a mathematical distribution function fits the experimental data, this function also holds for the undetectable part of the physical distribution.
