    Default CLIC Combiner Ring

    Here are some pics from the CLIC combiner ring. They take electrons and interleave them together into groups of twelve using two delay loops before sending them off to the linear section of the accelerator.

    That is about it for the combiner ring, Next is the prototype accelerator segment.

    On the walk from the combiner ring to the prototype linear accelerator segment there was a couple of more jewels in a small workshop off to the side.

    Here is the prototype. Ten points if you can guess the material that is used for the support beams.

    This Black beam is the one I'm talking about.

    Love the latest pictures but loading them almost stops my internet connection.
    Could you perhaps put them up as thumbnails or attachments?

    Sorry Snow, This is the only way I have found that I could post the full resolution versions without too much effort.

    If it proves to be too much of a problem for people I will figure out another way to do it.

    Hi Josh,

    Can't see many of the pictures anymore.

    Do the 10 points count towards the "he who dies with the most lathes wins" competition?Is it granite? Otherwise maybe a composite made of ground up failed grad students.......Ew

    It's not granite... I noticed that in many places they use tensioned wire for alignment, ( with sag tables in the computer )

    The CLIC ( Compact Linear Collider ) project is part of long term project to build a 50km long linear accelerator, taking into account the curvature of the earth, the middle will be underground. The problem with circular electron/positron accelerators is the energy that's radiated whenever you try to get the electrons to go round a curve really fast, it's called synchroton radiation.. by going in a straight line you don't lose power to synchrotron radiation.

    The project is many years into the future.. google "CERN CLIC" or go here for a quick overview CLIC in a nutshell

    Josh, as already reported by Geoff your pictures just bring my ADSL connection to a screaming halt! That is a shame because it would be nice to have a look at them but as it stands that creates problems, I'm sure also for other forum members. The pictures uploaded by Ray work far better and are kinder on bandwidth.

    Thanks guys for the latest pics.

    No problems loading pics here all loaded well.





    It will be many yeas down the track but imagine when these machines are pensioned off how I'd love to be a round for the sale.

    Maybe I'm just a geek at heart, but what a cool place to hang out and work at. One would find me spending a lotta after hours time there knocking up some bodgies. The sleeping bag would be in the corner under the bench.
    Frisky wife, happy life. ​Then I woke up. Oh well it was fun while it lasted.
    From an early age my father taught me to wear welding gloves . "Its not to protect your hands son, its to put out the fire when u set yourself alight".

    Great Pics Josh,
    What are all the black rings on the black stands, with yellow labels B3066-9 etc?

    The stands look like they either have been machined or cast in a machined mold. A plastic of some sort?
