Title: Relative sizes, magnet weight,cost of accelerators
Description: Relative sizes, magnet weight, and cost of earliest particle accelerators at Berkeley. ES is the electron synchrotron, BV the Bevatron. Among the problematic features of the Bevatron's design was the size of the gap or aperture in which the magnets constituting the machine's backbone would confine the beam. (The preceding information was excerpted from the text of the Fall 1981 issue of LBL Newsmagazine.)
