Mirage in a box: A classroom activity on the refractive index gradient
The presentation will illustrate how to realize, in a transparent tank, a stable refractive index gradient by using sucrose solutions and a gelling agent. The apparatus will be used in a classroom for hand-on experiments on the refraction of light and on related topics, with particular emphasis on a...
