Editing Quantum Mechanics Show (section)

== Preparation ==

Set up demo supplies on available tables.

Make sure you plan to have enough open space to set up the Schrodinger's/Tunneling box. Depending on the performance space, you can either begin with it set up (with hats inside), or folded up to the side. (This space can later be used to set up the Tesla coil.)

Set up STM and STM laptop (using gloves when touching the microscope), ideally placing the microscope on a separate table. This will reduce vibrations. Before the show begins, approach the sample to the tip and observe a few scans to check the tip and setup, then walk it out a little ways. Make sure no one jars the microscope at this point, and be sure the cords are not in a place where someone might trip over them. At the beginning of the STM part of the show, have the sample re-approach. It should be ready for scanning by the time the mystery box and Tesla coil demos are done.

Make sure the Mystery object is hidden from view.

Set up the laptop with the slide show and connect it to a projector. Make sure that the projector cable can be easily switched to the STM laptop when the time comes.
