Abstract

"Instrumentation and a new valving system is designed and built for use with an expansion type cloud chamber. Digital equipment is used for timing to improve reliability, accuracy, and flexibility, and a servo system is built using a lead compensator circuit which improves the servo system typically used with cloud chambers. Special care was taken to eliminate the sources of noise that appear in the amplified signal from the pressure transducer. The equipment needed to measure, record, and calibrate the pressure inside the chamber is built"--Abstract, page ii.
