Dosco Machine

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. Construction image. Mechanical "mole" (dosco machine) brought in by Morton Salt Co. to dig the cavity of IMB, 1979-1980

Ramp into cavity

Construction image. Finished cavity -- looking through tunnel to main part of mine.

Schlegel liner

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. IMB construction image. Double-walled liner being installed in cavity. Walls already covered.

Entrance barrier

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. IMB construction image. Entrance barrier formed from wooden beams, backed by salt on other side.

Completed liner

IMB construction image. Photomultiplier tubes (PMT's) about to be lowered into tank. Tank still empty of water.

Diver's view of PMT's [Photomultiplier tubes]

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. IMB construction image. Underwater view along bottom of "pool" showing PMT's [photomultiplier tubes] on bottom and opposite wall.

Diver working

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. IMB construction image. Diver checking connection to PMT [photomultiplier tubes] housing.

Diver in pool

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. IMB construction image. Scuba diver shown in IMB pool. Upgraded version of 8-inch PMT's [photomultiplier tubes] shown with wave-shifter plates.

Seven muons in IMB detector

IMB (Irvine, Michigan, Brookline), a collaboration between the University of Michigan, the University of California at Irvine, and the U.S. Department of Energy, was an experiment designed to determine the ultimate stability of matter. An unusual event showing seven cosmic ray muons going through the detector simultaneously. The yellow lines are the reconstructed paths of the muons.
