This Zig-Zag arrangement of capacitors and rectifiers, also known as a flip-flop circuit, is an electrical staircase, each triangular step doubling the effective voltage input from a transformer. A 26-ton Big European Bubble Chamber (BEBC) on the background. CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, is the biggest particle physics laboratory in the world.
