Prof. T. H. Havelock gave a review of recent work on the "Propagation of a Signal in a Dispersive Medium." He described the approximate methods of calculation which have been used, showing the relation between the recent methods of contour integration and the older work of Hamilton and Kelvin. The precise nature of the "forerunner," or minute disturbance which travels through the medium in advance of the main signal, is a matter of special difficulty, and an exact solution for any particular cases that may prove tractable ...
