Description: | By the middle of the 20th century, the study of natural philosophy had long since fragmented into separate disciplines. Within the physical sciences, academic research was well established in separate Schools. In the fields of physics and astronomy, exciting new developments were in progress world wide. Many of the instruments from this period are still in use within the Physics and Astronomy department of the University of St Andrews, for both teaching and research. However, they are assessed for inclusion in the Collection of Historic Scientific Instruments as they come out of active use, allowing the Collection to grow and develop. | Subjects: | SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS ASTRONOMY INSTRUMENT PHYSICS | Source: | University of St Andrews | Address: | KY16 9AJ | Creator: | University of St Andrews | Contributor: | University of St Andrews | Identifier: | PH:C92 | Language: | en-GB | Relation: | MC:C48 |
