West, Allen C. – J Chem Educ, 1969
Descriptors: Chemistry, College Science, Laboratory Experiments, Science Activities
Fergason, James L. – Amer J Phys, 1970
Describes laboratory experiments designed to demonstrate (1) the properties of cholesteric liquid crystals, (2) thermal mapping, (3) thermal diffusivity, (4) adiabatic expansion of rubber, and (5) measurement of radiated energy by a point source. Contains all of the information on materials and apparatus needed to perform the experiments.…

Peer reviewedEricson, T. J. – Physics Education, 1988
Describes an apparatus capable of measuring absolute temperatures of a tungsten filament bulb up to normal running temperature and measuring Botzmann's constant to an accuracy of a few percent. Shows that electrical noise techniques are convenient to demonstrate how the concept of temperature is related to the micro- and macroscopic world. (CW)
