STAR cooling system
Jun Takahashi (Wayne State/São Paulo) and Robert Soja (Brookhaven) make final adjustments to the cooling
system for the STAR SVT just prior to its insertion inside the inner field cage of the STAR Time Projection
Chamber. STAR is one of the major detectors at Brookhaven's new RHIC collider. In the foreground, Takahashi's
image is visible in the reflection from several of the state-of-the-art silicon drift detectors used as the technology for
this system.
