Jerusalem-built instrument
in its "PLT-Tokamak", the
largest thermonuclear re-
search device in the world.
The PLT is operated by the

bids to build the machine
for Princeton because of the

a result-of electronic transi-

wavelength. Maximum pre-
cision in this recording is

best resolution or ability to

It is the first instrument
in the far u-v field to be
adjusted inter-
ferometrically, giving it an
accuracy vastly greater
than ,other existing spec-
trometers.
