Experimental Physics Project
This project was completed in the final year of a Double Honours B, Sc. in Experimental
Physics and Computer Science. Entitled:
"Astronomy: Equatorial Mount and Design of
Filter Wheel",
it describes how the departmental telescope was set
up and calibrated on an equatorial mount, software setup and the design
of a filter wheel for astrophotometry and colour photography.
A presentation was given by myself and my partner Eoin
Cartwright. It summarises the essentials of the project. In
