The 12 inch magnet came from another cyclotron lab, where it's roll was not as the \"cyclotron magnet\" but as the first analyzing magnet of the extracted beam from the cyclotron. Our little 12-inch magnet was dwarfed by the awesome 290-ton 60-inch 16MeV Cyclotron. This is a story almost of fable proportions, as the little magnet, identical in shape, just 25 times smaller than the enormous cyclotron magnet, finally achieves the rank of \"Cyclotron Magnet\" 50 years later.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 12 inch magnet was loaded onto a specially made palette, loaded onto a Ryder rental truck and driven to Rutgers. The restoration is photographically documented in the 12inch Photo Album<\/a>.<\/a><\/p>\n
