(The writers of this paper avoid emphasizing the physical implications of their analysis. At the same time they do interpret their results to show that the intrinsic sensitivity of film is increased by longer development times. So far as other measurements have shown that the increase in speed resulting from long development time is paralleled by an increase in graininess, the present paper would argue that the intrinsic sensitivity is unchanged but that the developed grains are made larger by longer development time.).EXTERNAL
