Now with a crystal-clear glass viewing chamber, the Lascells Cloud Chamber is the perfect tool to visualise radiation in the classroom. Offering a minimal setup alternative to unreliable and time-consuming dry ice variants, the only preparation necessary is the addition of isopropyl alcohol (Propan-2-ol) and connection to a mains socket. The chamber is self-contained and thermoelectrically cooled. The chamber contains an integrated power supply and illumination of the chamber is provided by a high intensity LED. Using the provided thoriated tungsten source, alpha and beta tracks should be visible within 5 minutes. Once running the cloud chamber can be made to run for extended periods by adding more alcohol through
the access provided in the lid.
