Argonne National Laboratory
Abstract/Description: | This space leads to the meson experimental area of the ZGS from the ring building (ring magnet blocks are being installed in the background.) The 12-foot thick steel wall frames the opening into the machine on the other side. The opening in the wall now is filled with bending magnets, focusing magnets, and large amounts of movable steel and concrete shielding blocks. The magnets guide the secondary particles produced by the bombardment of targets placed within the synchrotron into the experimental areas where they can be studied using bubble chambers, spark chambers, and other particle detection devices. Above the wall are banks of water cooled copper conductors for supplying electricity to experimental equipment. |
