Using a Lascells cloud chamber with a fan-cooled plate?
The key isn’t more radiation—it’s better setup:
✔️ Give it time (10–15 mins)
✔️ Maximise airflow & cooling
✔️ Get the alcohol balance right

Most people think electricity flows through a wire like water in a pipe.
But the electrons actually move very slowly.
The energy mainly travels in the electromagnetic field around the wire.

A 4-version iterative study of QCCS Item 15 reveals how test-taking strategies (e.g. avoiding 'none of these') can mask true student understanding of phase kickback, entanglement, and partial measurement in quantum circuits.
