Pre-Lab Exercises

Due at the start of lab on Mon/Tues, Jan 16/17. You may perform your calculations right here in Python, or do the calculations on paper and show them to your TA.

Calculate the wavelengths of the Balmer $\alpha$ , $\beta$ , $\gamma$ , and $\delta$ lines in hydrogen and deuterium. Are these lines actually visible?
Calculate the isotope shifts $\lambda_H - \lambda_D$ of the Balmer $\alpha,\beta,\gamma$ and $\delta$ lines.

Place your notes, data, and analysis here...and maybe even a photo or sketch of your experimental setup.

Just to illustrate how to insert an image, I am including the figure from the lab guide here:

firstly lens should be chosen such that it matches f of the spectometer, but this was done ahead of time. next grating is fiddled with until peak A is found, at which point the PMT voltage is toned down until multimeter reads below 30mA. labview is used to scan through the grating spacing, through range manually set from observed range around peak. labview recorded output data is in units of twice the wavelength. this was done for all four lines at first for tube of just H, next moving on to deuterium. for gamma line voltage was boosted a lot to compensate for the weakness of the spectral line, seemed to induce significant signal to noise in comparison to alpha and beta lines. likewise with the delta line but even more exacerbated (signal to noise of about 2 or 3:1 at the peak). having some trouble with removing the hydrogen tube, as well as finding the deuterium signal. both deuterium peaks (including H) are much sharper, narrowing band of measurement and increased resolution to get finer grained data. first run looks very good, reducing the slit size and increasing source tube intensity leads to visually similar data with a small artifact in trough between both peaks. trailing line seems to be less sloped than leading with a much slower drop to zero (doesn't appear to approach asymptote as fast or has higher asymptote). switching direction of scan (from high to low wavelength to low to high) retains this (leading switches to trailing) which means it's not a scanning effect. switching back to high to low wavelength to measure other spectral lines starting with beta. beta lines are way too close together, decreasing slit size to make them distinguishable, boosting source tube intensity and PMT voltage to compensate for smaller signal. with this beta line it is even clearer that the trailing end drops off slower, time constant must be significantly higher. changing the orientation of the PMT doubles the measured A? we set PMT orientation to the maximum A which slightly improves the trailing vs leading edge difference. at minimum A orientation, leading edge seems worse, as well as trailing edge, and data is visually much less clean.

Plans for next time

Bulleted list...
...of things to do next

Wed/Thurs, January 18/19

exit slit size of 15 and 21 are where it's possible to see a downward slope from the first (smaller) peak from the deuterium tube. switched out tube to one that has a much larger first peak than the other tube, size of first peak appeared to increase as the day wore on, moreso than as factor of slit size?

Mon/Tues, January 23/24

vastly better deuterium tube data for alpha line, ran a few trials. first beta line trial was a bit worse of a fit (less definition between peaks, weird residual falloff at the ends) but readjustment (closing) of the entry slit size made an impact and now the data is much better, running a few more trials. gamma line peak maxes out at about 5mA even with max pmt voltage and data is a bit rougher than the other lines but signal to noise is still very good. reduced exit slit from 20.5 to 19.5 for second pass. data fit expectation better but error increased. ran 5 more trials on gamma, moving on to delta which peaks out at less than 1mA so data will be very unclean. signal to noise of about 4-5, running 9 more trials to compensate.
