Fischer Scientific Spectrometer
Was used in the UW System Physics Lab
This device is a physics lab spectrometer, specifically designed to measure refractive indices of prisms and analyze light spectra.
It features a collimator (tube on the right) to produce parallel light and a telescope (tube on the left) for viewing the light source or spectrum.
The central, black table is designed to hold a prism or diffraction grating, which can be rotated and measured against a graduated scale.
These instruments are commonly used in educational settings to teach the principles of light dispersion, frequency, and wavelength
