Abstract
Three forms of diffusion cloud chamber are described. Diagrams indicate their construction, and their operation is discussed. The direction of diffusion may be upward or downward. Various alcohols and water‐alcohol mixtures may be used. A stable diffusion cloud chamber giving tracks of the quality shown in the typical photographs is simple to construct and operate. The sensitive volume, while necessarily in the form of a horizontal region shallower than the chamber itself, can be made to include most of the chamber volume.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
