Abstract
The principles of a proton synchrotron are briefly reviewed, and the parameters of the CERN synchrotron are given. The problems presented by the design and construction of foundations for the machine are discussed. The instruments used in the measurements of length, angles, and levels to ensure the precision needed are described, and the results obtained are reported. (J.S.R.)
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
