Molecules and atoms that are normally gaseous at room temperature and pressure will liquefy or solidify as their temperature reduces or their pressure increases. In the apparatus detailed here a commercial cell contains pressurized SF 6 so that it exists in both gaseous and liquid states, with the density of both being similar at room temperature. The critical point on the phase diagram can then be investigated, by elevating the temperature of the cell so the densities of liquid and gas equalize. Under these conditions light passing through the cell is highly scattered by density fluctuations in the fluid. By measuring the transmitted light as a function of both temperature and wavelength, the critical exponent can be derived and the effects of light scattering with wavelength investigated.
