Two Billion Volts Atom-Buster At Brookhaven Lab
A giant iron ring called cosmotron at Brookhaven National Laboratory is under construction to accelerate protons to over two billion electron volts. The 60 foot ring, cost over three million dollars, will produce a sausage shaped proton cloud moving at 186000 mph. The experiment, directed by Dr. George B. Collins, aims to probe meson production and undiscovered particles, with the ring acting as an electromagnet to keep the beam in place.
