Argonne National Laboratory's 30-inch hydrogen bubble chamber. High energy particles leave "tracks" of tiny bubbles as they pass through liquid hydrogen in this chamber. These tracks are photographed by special high-speed cameras for later analysis by high energy physicists.

SUPER HANDBALL? No, it is the completed vacuum tank for the 15-foot bubble chamber being constructed near the intersection of Wilson and McChesney roads on the NAL site. Machining of the inner chamber body is underway at the Birmingham, Alabama plant of Chicago Bridge and Iron Co. Meantime, plans are progressing for the building to house a 30-inch bubble chamber.
