Quinn, Elton Leroy and Grant Wernimont. “The Densities of Coexisting Liquid and Gaseous Nitrous Oxide.” Journal of the American Chemical Society (American Chemical Society) 51, no. 7 (1929): 2002-2008.

Chemistry professor Elton Quinn wrote four journal articles and a textbook during this time period. All of his works focused on various aspects of carbon dioxide. The first article was written in 1927, two in 1928, one in 1929. The 1928 papers were written while Quinn was on sabbatical leave at Stanford. Quinn’s textbook Carbon Dioxide was part of the American Chemical Society Monograph series and served as a “treatise” to bring together all the relevant information to date on carbon dioxide. Quinn did not retain any of the copyright in his works.
