    e/m Apparatus 012-03471E Improving Experimental Results Measurement of e/m Notes 1) The greatest source of error in this experiment is the velocity of the electrons. First, the non-uniformity of the accelerating field caused by the hole in the anode causes the velocity of the electrons to be slightly less than their theoretical value.
