Where is the laboratory that houses The Tandem Van de Graaff located?
Tandem Van de Graaff The Tandem Van de Graaff is an electrostatic accelerator facility at Brookhaven National Laboratory. It was built in 1970, and was, at the time, the world's largest electrostatic accelerator facility. It can provide researchers with beams of more than 40 different types of ions that have been completely stripped of their electrons, ranging from hydrogen to iron. The facility consists of two 15 million volt electrostatic accelerators, each about 24 meters long.
Center for Integrated Plasma Studies The Center for Integrated Plasma Studies (CIPS) is a research center at the University of Colorado Boulder. This center was founded in 1993, in order to consolidate and facilitate plasma physics research on the University of Colorado Boulder campus. Today CIPS is involved with research in plasma physics, space plasmas, dusty plasmas, plasma diagnostics, and nuclear fusion. CIPS is located in the Duane Physics building on the University of Colorado Boulder Campus, and has about 20 research faculty and about 20 graduate and undergraduate students and support staff. CIPS is primarily supported by funding from NASA, United States Department of Energy, and National Science Foundation.
