X-Ray Dosing Facility

Adjacent to to the high bay area there is an assembly area with over head crane. This had been used for:

  • Brookhaven E852 construction
  • Radphi calorimeter refurbishment
  • ATLAS module testing
  • QuarkNet research
  • D0 Fiber optics assembly

It now contains an X-ray box about 2m x 2mx 0.5 meters containing two 110kev, 3 ma xray sources, used for high radiation studies of ATLAS components and tracking modules.
