This is U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nashville District lock operator Dallas Barfields’ camera view as motor vessel “Miss Katie” and its tow with the 50-foot electromagnetic particle ring Muon g-2 exit Kentucky Lock en route to Chicago. The Muon-2 is a very powerful electromagnetic ring capable of carrying 5,200 amps of current and it creates a very strong magnetic field that allows storing a special particle called a muon. For more information on the Muon g-2, and how the Nashville District contributed to its journey, see http://www.npr.org/2013/07/02/197719271/15-ton-particle-ring-travels-to-chicago-by-land-and-by-sea>.
