Target Chamber

World class scientific facilities are based within Oxfordshire's Harwell Campus.

 

Photographed within the Vulcan Target Area West.

 

This vessel is used for experiments where the Vulcan laser interacts with targets. It needs to operate within a vacuum as low as 0.0000001 bar. This is typically 1 billion times less than you would feel from normal atmospheric pressure.
