Abstract
I have recently (May 3) received an intimation from the Secretaries of the Royal Society that Lord Rayleigh has questioned the validity of my analysis of the problem of bending of electric waves round a conducting obstacle, the ground of the criticism being that the shortness of the wave-length involves that the important harmonics in the expansion are of high order comparable with the ratio of the circumference of the sphere to the wave-length, and that for them the approximations in the paper are not valid. Subsequently I have learned that M. Poincare has made a similar objection.
