  • Abstract
    Thirty feet above ground, a 3/8-inch “hot spot” of concentrated sunlight is providing up to 6,000 F of solar heat to assist scientists in various research tasks at the Stanford Research Institute (SRI). It is the focal point of a new solar furnace which will enable the staff at SRI to conduct certain experiments not possible or convenient with other heat sources.
