The bar breaker experiment comprises a very rigid frame (d) and a massive connecting rod (b). The rod is held on one side by a cast iron bar (c) that is going to be broken in the experiment and, at the other end, by a nut (a) that is used to compensate the thermal expansion.
Faraday's ice pail experiment is a simple electrostatics experiment performed in 1843 by British scientist Michael Faraday [1] [2] that demonstrates the effect of electrostatic induction on a conducting container. For a container, Faraday used a metal pail made to hold ice, which gave the experiment its name. [3]
PHENIX is an exploratory experiment for the investigation of high energy collisions of heavy ions and protons, and is designed specifically to measure direct probes of the collisions such as electrons, muons, and photons.
Thomson's experiments with cathode rays (1897): J. J. Thomson's cathode ray tube experiments (discovers the electron and its negative charge). Eötvös experiment (1909): Loránd Eötvös publishes the result of the second series of experiments, clearly demonstrating that inertial and gravitational mass are one and the same.
Samsung has unveiled its latest crop of C-Lab experiments, including a phone app that calibrates your TV and a scanner that helps you clean clothes. Samsung's latest experiments include a phone ...
Grove and Fox (1953) measured 385-MeV protons moving at ~0.7c. Determination of the angular frequencies and of the magnetic field provided the charge-to-mass ratio. This, together with measuring the magnetic center, allowed to confirm the relativistic expression for the charge-to-mass ratio with a precision of ~0.0006.
