Abstract
The use of modern materials and specialized forming techniques have enabled the ISR Division at CERN to produce very transparent interaction area vacuum chambers. The design and fabrication methods used to conceive and form these chambers are described. Special reference is made to the titanium chamber in intersection 7, the inconel chamber in intersection 8, and the stainless steel chamber in intersection 4. A method is given for rationalising the choice of material for interaction area vacuum chambers for any colliding beam machine.
