The BEBC chamber body and piston in CERN's Microcosm Garden.

The Big European Bubble Chamber (BEBC) was used to photograph the tracks left by particles as they passed through a heated liquid as it was expanded. When closed in 1984, 6.3 million photographs had been taken on 3000 km of film for 22 neutrino and hadron experiments using beams from the PS and SPS accelerators.
