Magnet Alignment Test
The staff of Brookhaven's National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) have completed a preliminary test of one of the project’s critical design issues -- to determine how closely the magnets stay aligned when they are moved from their assembly point to the NSLS-II tunnel. The results confirm that the magnets’ high-precision alignment would survive the process of transporting and installing and fixing the girders to the ground in the tunnel.
