AMU in Current Science

Science periodical Current Science, from Bangalore, is India's answer to the British journal Nature. Its first volume came out in 1932. AMU got its representation in Current Science in volume 1 itself. R.F. Hunter wrote the following paper:
R.F.Hunter, The Electronic Theory of Triad Mobility, Current Science, Vol 1 , No3 (1932) 69
Lessheim and Samuel also appear early in:
H.Lessheim and R.Samuel, On Connection Between Di- and Tri-atomic Molecules, Current Science, Vol 2, (1933) 374
After that there are regular contributions from these authors. Then, after few years, there is a paper by Dr Muhammad Zaki Uddin not from AMU but Bonn, Germany as a Humboldt Fellow:

Muhammad Zaki Uddin, The Arc Spectrum of Iron in the Photographic Infrared Region, Current Science, Vol 3, (1935) 620
He must have joined AMU later on since there are papers by him from Aligarh.

There are other snippets of AMU Physics from Current Science that should appear here later on, Lord willing.
