Cockroft-Walton generator, Fermilab
MODEL RELEASED. Cockroft-Walton generator at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), near Chicago, USA. The generator forms the first stage of subatomic particle acceleration. Electrons are added to hydrogen atoms in an ion source inside the generator, resulting in hydrogen ions (a proton with two electrons) emerging from the high voltage accelerator with an energy of 750 thousand electronvolts (KeV). The protons travel through increasingly powerful accelerators before entering the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. Here, a technician is grounding any remaining electricity as a safety precaution after the generator has been used. Photographed in 1998. Accelerator operator is MARTY MURPHY

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive Cockroft-Walton generator at Fermilab, located near Chicago in the United States. Serving as the initial stage of subatomic particle acceleration, this generator plays a crucial role in advancing our understanding of particle physics. Within its confines, electrons are introduced to hydrogen atoms within an ion source, resulting in the emergence of hydrogen ions with an energy level reaching an astounding 750 thousand electronvolts (KeV). These energized protons then embark on a journey through increasingly powerful accelerators before entering the renowned Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. In this particular moment frozen in time from 1998, we witness a diligent technician taking safety precautions by grounding any remaining electricity after utilizing the generator. This essential step ensures that all potential hazards are mitigated and guarantees a secure working environment for everyone involved. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of high voltage electricity and grounding practices but also in its representation of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge. The Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory stands as a testament to our unwavering dedication to unraveling the mysteries hidden within subatomic particles and pushing scientific boundaries forward. Photographed by Science Photo Library and featuring accelerator operator Marty Murphy, this image encapsulates both the awe-inspiring power contained within these cutting-edge technologies and the meticulous attention paid to safety protocols at every step along this electrifying odyssey into particle physics research.
