The Milagro experiment consists of a huge tank of water. High Energy gamma rays or photons produce bursts of light in the water which are detected. The energies, rates, and origins of these gamma rays give information on the formation of galaxies. The experiment will also look for gamma rays associated with the interactions between a black hole and its surroundings. This group is responsible for producing the devices which are sensitive to the light bursts.

米拉格罗实验由一个巨大的水箱组成。高能伽马射线或光子在水中产生光脉冲，并被探测到。这些伽马射线的能量、速率和起源提供了有关星系形成的信息。该实验还将寻找与黑洞与其周围环境之间的相互作用相关的伽马射线。这个小组负责生产对光爆炸敏感的设备。
