Tour of the Magnet Lab (6 April 2007)

We had about 20 members and guests, including several alumni, at our tour of the Magnet Lab this afternoon. (We even had a few guys who were just visiting and joined our group.) Special thanks to Khalid for getting this all arranged on short notice.

I'll upload some photos here right now, and fill in a few details later.

(As with the other articles, you can click on the image to get a larger version but the pictures have been resized and "saved for web" to keep them in the 100k range.)

Part of the group getting an overview of the lab and its mission:



Our tour guide explaining the features of the 900 MHz NMR magnet:



Resistive magnet construction area



One experimental bay (magnet in background)





Although several students had already left, we too the mandatory Group Photo in the lobby:



And, since no single picture can get everyone looking at the camera, we took another ...



... and a third, to show they can act like college students instead of future professionals



Thanks, Lina, for taking these last pictures!

These pics rock! We need to plan another field trip! Is anything going on with the Nuclear power plant trip?
