Premium Framed Print : HERA accelerator ring, DESY
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
HERA accelerator ring, DESY
HERA accelerator ring. View of part of the HERA accelerator at DESY (Deutsche Elektronen Synchro- tron), Hamburg, Germany. HERA (Hadron Electron Ring Accelerator) consists of a pair of accelerator rings mounted in a 6.3km circumference tunnel. The upper (cream-coloured) ring carries protons, whilst the lower (pink) ring carries electrons in the other direction. At two points on the ring the beams cross providing proton/electron collisions at an energy of 850 GeV. Two large detectors (H1 and ZEUS) will then study these collisions. Data from these detectors will provide information about the quarks inside protons and the gluon force moderators that bind them

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a view of the HERA accelerator ring at DESY, located in Hamburg, Germany. The HERA (Hadron Electron Ring Accelerator) is an extraordinary scientific marvel consisting of two accelerator rings encased within a 6.3km circumference tunnel. In this image, we can observe the upper ring adorned in cream color carrying protons while the lower ring, painted pink, carries electrons in the opposite direction. At specific points along these rings, proton/electron collisions occur with an astounding energy level of 850 GeV. These collisions are meticulously studied by two large detectors named H1 and ZEUS to unravel invaluable information about quarks residing inside protons and the influential gluon force moderators that bind them together. The significance of this research cannot be overstated as it delves into understanding fundamental particles and their interactions on a subatomic scale. As scientists explore these particle physics phenomena at DESY's HERA accelerator facility, they unlock secrets that contribute to our knowledge of nuclear research and advance our comprehension of the universe's building blocks. This awe-inspiring photograph from Science Photo Library encapsulates both the grandeur and complexity involved in pushing boundaries within particle physics laboratories like DESY. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and determination to unveil nature's deepest mysteries through cutting-edge technology such as accelerators like HERA.
