Extras!

This is one of the two huge detector assemblies in Hall A. Magnets are used to bend the paths of the electrons that will come streaming from the target chamber up into the detectors. The detector hut doors are opened so that technicians can work on the detectors.

This tour reflects Jefferson Lab as it was in the late 1990s and early 2000s. In particular, this predates the 12 GeV upgrade and the addition of Hall D. For a modern look at the Lab, please see the Jeffeson Lab Virtual Tour.
