OSTI ID:4241258
A 7,000-ton electromagnet core for the 7 Bev proton synchrotron is being produced in 336 radial sectors. Each sector is composed of 45 silicon steel plates, each 121/2 in. thick, weighing nearly 20 tons. The plates were annealed at 800 deg C and cooled at the raie of 3 deg C per hour. The machined surfaces are given a coating of strippable lacquer for protection during dispatch and handling. (C.J.G.)
