The diode gun, a tungsten wire “hairpin” filament and a cylindrical collimating anode, projects a narrow beam of cathode rays into the evacuated experimental zone. This beam traverses the sphere to impinge on the luminescent screen in a spot about 4 mm in diameter. The narrow beam may be deflected in a vertical plane to enter the Faraday cage by using Helmholtz Coils, TEL 2502. A further and horizontal deflection can be obtained using Secondary Coil, TEL 2507 thereby constructing a simple cathode ray oscilloscope. All connections are made on the Universal Stand.
