Third walk for the Bearing Flux project - this time setting off from the dark arches in Leeds to explore and interact with spaces along the canal. Various bridges lend themselves very well to some nice silhouettes and a sense of drama.
Bearing Flux is a collaboration between five Yorkshire based artists, using performance art as a methodology for exploring site and place. More about this developing project here: bearingflux.tumblr.com/

A large selection of quadrupole magnets are seen lined up in a orderly fashion inside a storage building owned by Jefferson Lab in Newport News, Va., on Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2024. (Aileen Devlin | Jefferson Lab)
These magnets came from Argonne National Laboratory, which shipped the 30-year-old Advanced Photon Source (APS) magnets to Brookhaven and Jefferson Lab, where they will be re-purposed for use as part of the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a state-of-the-art particle collider being led by those other two labs and that will be built at Brookhaven.

The X-15 program started in about 1955 (roughly 2 years before I was born), and continued until December of 1968. For a long time during my youth "X-15" was synonymous with "rocket plane" and "test flying".
During the program 8 pilots flew the X-15 to altitudes greater than 50 miles above the earth, and thereby qualified for either US Air Force or NASA Astronaut Wings.

A nine-celled niobium cavity is displayed inside the SRF Test Lab at Jefferson Lab in Newport News, Va., on Friday, June 7, 2024. (Aileen Devlin | Jefferson Lab)
Niobium, at room temperature, has electrical resistance and behaves just like copper. If, however, niobium is cooled to very low temperatures, it loses all electrical resistance and becomes what scientists call a superconductor. Since superconductors have no electrical resistance, electrical currents flowing through them do not lose any energy and do not produce any waste heat. If no heat is created, the cavities can not heat up and the accelerator does not need to shut down to allow them to cool. The use of superconductive niobium cavities allows the accelerator to provide a continuous beam of electrons to the experiments.
