Horn inner conductors arrived at
CERN(collaboration between IN2P3 and CERN)
On 31st March 2003, the two inner
conductors for the CNGS horns (one for the horn to be installed, one for the
spare horn) were delivered to CERN.
Two pictures showing one of the
inner conductors on the measurement test bench of the EST-SU group at CERN
(photos courtesy S. Rangod, CERN-EP). Apart from both ends, the 6.65 metre long
inner conductor is supported in three places - these are the locations where it
will be supported, in the final configuration inside the horn, with sets of
three stretched wires in each place
