Bevatron/Bevalac user's handbook: nuclear science
Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory presently has the most extensive array of heavy ion accelerators in the world, with a diverse research program in nuclear science, physics and the biological effects of heavy ion radiations. Of these, the Bevatron/Bevalac offers an extremely wide range of high energy, high intensity particle beams--from protons to argon and heavier. The facilities and experimental program have changed dramatically since 1974, when Bevalac operation was inaugurated. Now with SuperHILAC accelerated heavy ions injected into the Bevatron, intense beams of particles up to argon can be accelerated to energies of 2.1 GeV per nucleon. A handbook is given which describes administrative information, major facilities, operational data, experimental beam lines and experimental equipment for nuclear science and physics users.
