Two detectors of anti-protons. At left is the arrangement Segre's group
used successfully in 1955. M indicates bending magnets, Q focusing quadrupole
magnets, S scintillation counters and C Cerenkov counters to eliminate false counts.
At right is the Lofgren group's detector that analyzed the. beam from Segre's
magnets. The small Cerenkov counters distinguished the antiproton from a meson, the
large one registered the annihilation of an antiproton with a
proton. |
