98 DOCUMENT 83 FEBRUARY 1908 Um ein Mißverständnis auszuschließen, bemerke ich, daß Ihr Artikel nicht ein Bericht, sondern eine Originalmitteilung sein soll. Mit vorzüglicher Hochachtung Ihr ergebener J. Stark. ALS. [22 322]. The envelope is addressed "Herrn Dr. A. Einstein in Bern Aegertenstr. 55. Schweiz," and postmarked "Greifswald 2 12.2.08.4-5N[achmittags]." Three unrelated equa- tions in Einstein's hand on the last page of the original are omitted. [22 323]. One of them ex- presses a central force law proportional to r-5. [1]Einstein 1907j (Vol. 2, Doc. 47). Stark was the editor of the Jahrbuch der Radioaktivität und Elektronik, in which the paper appeared. See Docs. 58, 60, 61, and 63 for correspondence between Einstein and Stark in connection with this paper. [2]Edward L. Nichols (1854-1937) was Professor of Physics at Cornell University. His pub- lication is Nichols 1905. [3]The article is Dahms 1905. Albert Dahms (1872-?) was Privatdozent in physics at the University of Leipzig. [4]Stark had just published an article in the Physikalische Zeitschrift on the relation between fluorescence and molecular constitution (Stark 1908a). No paper by him on this subject ap- peared in the Jahrbuch. [5]See Einstein 1905i (Vol. 2, Doc. 14), §7, for Einstein's work on Stokes's rule. 83. From Emil Bose[1] Oliva bei Danzig, Georgstr. 22.

The underscored word appears in the original in spaced letters ("Sperrdruck"). [1]Bose (1874-1911) was Professor of Physical Chemistry at the Technical University of Danzig, Director of its Physical-Chemical Laboratory, and editor of the Physikalische Zeit- schrift. [2]The manuscript of Einstein 1908a (Vol. 2, Doc. 48). The paper appeared in issue 7 of vol- ume 9 of the Physikalische Zeitschrift, which was dated 1 April 1908. See the editorial note, "Einstein's 'Maschinchen' for the Measurement of Small Quantities of Electricity," pp. 51-55, for a discussion of its contents.
