Interesting, thanks for the pointer. And it closes the circle... The first slide is a quote from one of Beyer's papers: "It might be said that radiation pressure is a phenomenon that the observer thinks he understands — for short intervals, and only every now and then” I remember reading the paper that comes from a very long time ago, and that was what inspired my remark about radiation pressure being one of the more elusive topics in acoustics !
