written by Ramit Mehr, Tal Grossman, N. Kristianpoller, and Yuval Gefen
A simple experiment for the demonstration of percolation problems is reported. Measurements were performed on a sheet of conducting paper after randomly cutting out small square 'sites' at a concentration 1?p. The conductance and the area fraction covered by the infinite cluster were evaluated as a function of p. This experiment is appropriate as an introduction to the teaching of phase transitions.
