THE 20-METER LONG OAK RIDGE ELECTRON LINEAR ACCELERATOR (ORELA) OPERATED BY THE PHYSICS DIVISION OF ORNL. BURSTS OF ELECTRONS EJECTED FROM THE ELETRON "GUN" IN THE FOREGROUND (LARGE CYLINDER) TRAVEL DOWN A LINEAR WAVE GUIDE AND ARE BOOSTED TO 140-MEV ENERGY. AT THE FAR END OF THE ACCELERATOR THE ELECTRONS HIT A TANTALUM TARGET AND PRODUCE NEUTRONS. THESE NEUTRONS ARE USED TO STUDY THE STRUCTURE OF THE NUCLEUS, AND TO SUPPLY DATA FOR FUSION AND FISSION REACTORS. For more information or additional images, please contact 202-586-5251. |
