Hologram of a Wire

Contact us about this object

Description

"On Pan-X film, self-documented by photographing a blackboard sketch on the same roll (nice idea! Juris and I cut the roll in half). This used a Ronchi ruling (any grating would do) to pre-disperse the light from a mercury arc. This anticipates some of Emmett's later work on with three-grating interferometers." Quote comes from Leith's notes.
