Dear Dr Clarke,

Greetings for X-mas and a happy new year. I am sending a photograph of the Reynolds - type 4.5" -60° sector rare-gas machine completely made in Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. We took 3 years to build it.

This machine can well resolve the Xenon peaks and has a sensitivity of 1x10‾¹³ CC STP Xe¹³⁰/mV. We get a vacuum of 5x10‾¹⁰ Torr. We have finished the analysis of some local meteorites for Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe analysis. We are mounting now the sample sent by you, 2 years ago.

Please keep me on your mailing list.

With best regards,

Yours sincerely,
