could be worth also to cite Mason's earlier work: Mason, B. J. (1956). On the melting of hailstones

perhaps a new submodule in physics with diffusional_growth_thermal_inertia (aka Howell Factor) and variants:

  • [ ] Neglect
  • [ ] Howell
  • [ ] Mason 1958
  • [ ] Mason 1971
  • [ ] Gedzelman, Bolot?

(and if not a variant, at least cite in docstring)
