KEK Accelerators visit tour!!!

This summer, I got through the tunnels in Accelerator facility.
I'll give you little introductions:)

First, Linear Acc. called linac. This is very simple one, just gives energy to electron beam.

Connection between Pipes. You can see thinner pipes the cooling water goes through.

"Beam Junction"

Final one for generating synchrotron radiation.
This is called Undulator. This can make beam more coherent.
