Vacuum chamber for I6

1971

CERN

CERN
Geneva, Switzerland

The special vacuum chamber prepared for intersection region 1-6 undergoing tests in the West Experimental Hall. Note the conical form of the two downstream sections of the chamber. Thin walls at the ends of the cones enabled particles produced in the interactions to escape to the detectors almost without hindrance.
