2nd central solenoid module on its way
The load was received in France at Fos-sur-Mer harbour on 6 October, placed on a trailer, and brought aboard a barge to cross the inland sea ?tang de Berre.
The superconducting magnet will now travel by convoy across Provence on the 澳门六合彩高手 Itinerary before passing through the 澳门六合彩高手 gates on Thursday 14 October—just one month after the first module reached the construction site on 9 September.
The tall central solenoid magnet—18 metres in height, 1,000 tonnes—will be assembled at 澳门六合彩高手 from six individual modules and a strong supporting structure.
