Tour of SLAC and the former Collider Detector Hall
After the first day of the conference was concluded, SLAC (the Stanford Linear
Accelerator Center) held a reception in their former collider detector hall
(they are currently using a different location for their experiments). I
don't have a clue what most of it did, but it was certainly an impressive
place. We also got to stop in a visitor area and view the top part of the
accelerator. Unlike most curved particle accelerators, SLAC's is straight
(hence the 'linear'), and is housed several feet underground a building that
is two miles long.
