Westwood Physics Students Experiment With Van de Graaf Generator WESTWOOD, N.J. -- Westwood students in Henry Chen’s Physics class had a shocking experience when they linked their hands to a Van de Graaf generator. The mysterious machine collects a large number of negatively charged particles on its dome.
