Excerpt from The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, Vol. 38: Fifth Series; July-December, 1894 The correctness of Stefan's formula (4) for the diffusion of gases composed, of forceless molecules seems to me therefore to be well assured by the successful application of the principles involved in it to the details of the process of evaporation; and the foregoing brief Sketch of his theory serves as the most natural introduction to a theory of gaseous difi'usion wherein the attractions of molecules are taken account of.
