555 Van Allen Hall:
Dusty plasma experiments are conducted in this lab, which is our largest:

Our modified GEC chamber, where we do strongly-coupled dusty plasma
experiments:
Our "black chamber", where we do experiments that require
other types of plasma sources. It's shown here labeled the way it was
configured for Tim Flanagan's dust shedding experiments:

We use lots of optics. Here's just a small part of an optical table,
with one of our lasers for illuminating and manipulating dust particles:
501 Van Allen Hall:
This room is used for plasma needle experiments, and for setting up equipment.

518 Van Allen Hall:
This room is used for data analysis, setting up equipment, and our parabolic-flight
hardware. Here's a photo of the parabolic flight hardware, when it was
installed in NASA's aircraft, before coming back to our lab at Iowa.
