The experimental program for the newly completed Zero Gradient Synchrotron at Argonne National Laboratory commenced last month. Construction of the accelerator, which had been in progress since 1959, was completed during the summer, and, on September 18, the machine accelerated its first beam of protons to an energy of 12.7 BeV, exceeding its design energy by 0.2 BeV. After tuning and adjustment, the beam intensity is expected to reach
