Magnets and accelerators
The ATLAS toroid magnet in the building phase.
New instruments for physics research require state-of-the art knowledge, as well as untried technologies. Researchers-engineers and technicians at Dapnia are designing and building, in collaboration with industry, the necessary equipment for physics experiments at laboratories around the world, be they large accelerators, telescopes or satellites.
