Abstract :
The magnetic shielding system for the Stanford two-mile accelerator consists of a 0.006-inch-thick layer of high quality commercial magnetic shielding material wrapped around the accelerator. It is surrounded by a system of degaussing wires, consisting of two orthogonal sets of four wires spaced to provide uniform fields to cancel the vertical and transverse horizontal components of the earth´s magnetic field.
