Faraday's ice pail experiment is a simple electrostatics experiment performed in 1843 by British scientist Michael Faraday [1] [2] that demonstrates the effect of electrostatic induction on a conducting container. For a container, Faraday used a metal pail made to hold ice, which gave the experiment its name. [3]

A homemade fusor. A fusor is a device that uses an electric field to heat ions to a temperature at which they undergo nuclear fusion.The machine induces a potential difference between two metal cages, inside a vacuum.
The first experiment that strived to respect this condition was Aspect's 1982 experiment. [15] In it the settings were changed fast enough, but deterministically. The first experiment to change the settings randomly, with the choices made by a quantum random number generator, was Weihs et al.'s 1998 experiment. [18]
Pressure experiment are necessary because substances behave differently at different pressures. For example, water boils at a lower temperature at lower pressures. The equipment used for pressure experiments depends on whether the pressure is to be increased or decreased and by how much.

It was devised in 1804 by John Leslie (1766–1832), a Scottish mathematician and physicist. [1] In the version of the experiment described by John Tyndall in the late 1800s, [2] one of the cube's vertical sides is coated with a layer of gold, another with a layer of silver, a third with a layer of copper, while the fourth side is coated with a varnish of isinglass.
