CERN. Experiments and Projects / The dramatic descent of the central section of the CMS detector
The dramatic descent of the central section of the CMS detector. Geneva, 28 February 2007. At 6:00 am this morning the heaviest piece of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) particle detector began a momentous journey into the experiment's cavern, 100 metres underground at CERN1. Using a huge gantry crane, custom-built by the Vorspann System Losinger Group, the pre-assembled central piece, containing the magnet and weighing as much as five Jumbo jets (1920 tonnes) is being gently lowered into place. The entire process is expected to take about ten hours to complete.
