EXPERIMENTS USING A HELIUM-NEON LASER
... This 30x20x0.2cm steel platform provides a work surface that holds the magnetic component holders securely. A center hole in the platform allows it to be bolted to a 60155 Blank Carrier (not included) if the user decides to mount the platform on the IFO triangular optics bench system. No. 45-648 ...
