Berg, T. G. Owe – Amer J Phys, 1969
Describes an apparatus designed to study the properties of charged particles suspended in an electric field. The apparatus consists of a suspension chamber, an optical system and power supplies and controls. Experiments conducted include determination of particle size, charge-to-mass ratio and particle collisions and exchange. (LC)
Descriptors: College Science, Equipment Utilization, Laboratory Equipment, Measurement
Extermann, Richard C. – Amer J Phys, 1969
Describes an apparatus designed for observing the motion of delicate mechanical systems. The apparatus consists of a light-spot follower attachment connected to a servo-recorder. The oscillations of a triple-torsion pendulum and of a Cavendish balance have been studied. (LC)

Fendley, J. J. – Physics Education, 1982
Describes a novel and simple method of measuring the refractive index of transparent plates using a Michelson interferometer. Since it is necessary to use a computer program when determining the refractive index, undergraduates could be given the opportunity of writing their own programs. (Author/JN)
