Title
Time Projection Chamber
Description
The Time Projection Chamber (TPC), shown with inventor David Nygren (left), was designated by LBL physicists for use at PEP, the positron- electron colliding beam ring at Stanford. The Laboratory has collaborated closely with the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), where a 20 BeV electron linac began to operate in 1967. Together they have designed and built a positron- electron colliding beam ring (PEP) that will provide collision energies. (The preceding information was excerpted from the text of the Fall 1981 issue of LBL Newsmagazine.)
