APR 01, 1966
Physics Today

A new liquid‐hydrogen bubble chamber is being constructed at Argonne National Laboratory. The chamber will be about 4 meters in diameter and a meter and a half high (Argonne gives the dimensions in deplorable English units) and will be one of the first of the coming size range in bubble chambers. Brookhaven has plans for a slightly larger chamber, but they have not yet been approved by funding agencies. A heavy‐liquid chamber 4.5 by 1 by 1.5 m will be built at CERN, and a 2‐m hydrogen chamber is under construction at Dubna.
