Blackbody Exponent and the vacuum Filament
The goal of this lab is (1) to test the T4 exponent behavior
of blackbody radiation and (2) test the exponential suppression of the
black body radation at wavelenghts shorter than the Wien maximum.
Setup the circuit as shown and do both parts!
Circuit to setup
Part 1: Measuring the exponent of the
Stefan-Boltzmann law with a vacuum filament
Part 2: Frequency Windowed Photoemission
from a vacuum filament.

things,
calibrating your filament resistance to temperature.
