Folks at the mag lab have confirmed that they will be doing the triple-point of water demo this year, so that (in the low temperature lab) will be my first stop, followed by the tesla coil across the hall, in case anyone gets there late and wants to catch up with us.
From there I plan to go to the "shrinking quarter" demo, which will be done every half hour. The best deal is to get there right around when he fires the capacitor so we can get up front when the crowd leaves and spend the wait looking at all of the pieces needed to get a 60 Tesla magnetic field for a few micro seconds.
Lots and lots of details about this LRC pulse are in an old 2008 blog article linked HERE.
My route after that is unpredictable, but will include the magnet winding lab and the machine shop, and probably the big NMR magnet and the electron microscope, before heading over to the CAPS facility on Levy.
TAEVA, the Tallahassee Area Electric Vehicle Association, will have home-built and commercial electric vehicles on display in front of the CAPS building.
