![Each BEACON instrument has two cylinders outfitted with copper electrodes. As the cylinders spin synchronously, the electrical field produces a signal between the electrodes; from this signal, the strength and direction of the E-field are computed.](/sites/default/files/styles/list/public/project/image/2018-03/BEACON_RenderTransparent_iso.jpg?h=c2ac3c3b&itok=zDoPMQO4)
