New Synchrotron Successfully Tested

(Original Caption) University of Michigan physicist, Dr. H.G. Crane(left), and George Grover, a research associate, check the new 15-ton, 300,000,000 electrron-volt synchrotron which has been pronounced a success after it's initial tests. The "race track" machine will be used to split the nuclei of atoms for advanced atomic research. Electrons get a hefty push from the electron gun, the tall glass tube at the left.
