Corrections to the American Institute of Physics Handbook

AUG 01, 1958
The corrections given below comprise the second such list of errata for the American Institute of Physics Handbook (McGraw‐Hill Book Company, Inc., New York, 1957). The first compilation of changes appeared in the August 1957 issue of Physics Today (pp. 19–20) and the corrections were made in the second printing of the Handbook. The changes in this new list appear in the third printing. Notification of any further errors that come to the attention of readers of the Handbook will be gratefully received. Such information can be sent to Dr. Dwight E. Gray, Coordinating Editor, AIP Handbook, 306 Northwest Drive, Silver Spring, Md.
