Interactive Experiments Controlled Through the Internet
.This project, supported by funding from the LTSN Centre at Hull University, aims to provide truly interactive access to remote equipment through the Internet. At present, simple data can be obtained by using a web browser to connect to an optical rig in Oxford. On-line documentation is not presently available, as instructions are issued to students when they do the experiment, but a copy of these instructions is available from Dr. Hugh Cartwright.
Communication with the rig at present is accomplished via a series of applets. With LTSN support, we are moving control from Java applets to HP VEE, with a substantial increase in sophistication and versatility. The project started in August 2000 and is continuing.
You are welcome to try the present software by clicking on this link.
We welcome enquiries from other sites who might be interested in collaborating on projects of this nature, which involve the development of Internet experiments in chemistry or other physical sciences. [Contact Dr Hugh Cartwright at Oxford ]
The Principles of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
This consists of a series of applets which allow the user to investigate some of the fundamental ideas of NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance), including Free Induction Decay, coupling, relaxation and more. The experiment can be started by clicking here.
