8th November, 1954 Dear Dr. Caspar, Thank you very much for your letter. I am very interested in your results. I have calculated Fourier projections from the equatorial data, in very much the same way as you (using the theoretical shape of the central peak) and I find a heavy density shell at about r = 55A. My intensity measurements are undoubtedly less accurate than yours, but they extend to much larger angles, which enabled me to calculate a complete projection rather than its difference from a uniform rod. I am at present busy writing up this and other aspects of the work and hope to be able to send you a copy of a draft paper in a week or two. Yours sincerely, Rosalind Franklin
