Staff pictured on the lower half of the Main Magnet poles (taken during
construction).
Vacuum tank, upper magnet poles and the support/lifting
structure are not yet assembled.
Eight of the twelve dual Lifting Jack
assemblies can be seen around the outer edge.
Joining sections of the lower
Main Magnet coil can be seen clearly at 3 o'clock and 7 o'clock.
The holes
through the magnet sectors are for the tie rods which are fastened to the floor
and the
underside of the vacuum tank to prevent it from being crushed by
atmospheric pressure when evacuated.
