Big European Bubble Chamber

ID: big-european-bubble-chamber

The Big European Bubble Chamber (BEBC) was a particle physics detector used at the CERN laboratory in Switzerland. It was operational from the late 1960s until the early 1980s. The BEBC was designed to observe and analyze the interactions of high-energy particles, particularly in experiments involving neutrino interactions and other fundamental particle studies. The chamber itself was filled with superheated liquid hydrogen, which would form bubbles when charged particles passed through it.
