Beta Particles
<b>Aim:</b>
I will investigate how the field strength varies the deflection of Beta Particles.
<b>Preliminary Work</b>
I started my preliminary work because, when I started my measurements using 2 coils used in experiments to deflect electrons from and electron gun. While testing for the deflection of beta particles, I found that beta radiation was scattered in a very large cone, I can not get any readings with amount of beta

agnetic coils do not contain the beta particles like the electric plates. I would have to use a different detector set-up.
The detector I would like to use, if I had more resources available, would be a radioactive sensitive film, because I would see the overall deflection of particles from the experiment and see repulsion force from the negative plate. Also I would be able to measure the distance and ant the deflection more accurately.
