Midac interferometer

The facility, methods of procedure, and materials employed in this study have been discussed in detail elsewhere O9O 9 and are only briefly described here. The outdoor reaction chamber employed in this study consists of a 309000-liter FEP-type Teflon bag of triangular cross section held semi-rigidly by a framework of steel pipes. The chamber houses a set of multiple-reflection optics (capable of pathlengths in excess of 1 km) which is interfaced to a Midac interferometer and associated data system.
