First apperance of Majorana's paper which was the first experimentally to prove the speed of light as set forth by Einstein in his special relativity theory. Majorana was critical to Einstein's relativity, and he therefore tried to prove experimentally that the postulate of the speed of light was wrong. His experiments turned out otherwise, and he hereby proved Einstein's postulate that the speed of light was independent of the velocxity of its source.
