CURVATURE IMPLEMENTATIONhttp://www.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/getdoc/slac-pub-12853.pdf
An essential feature of the main linac is its curvature. With the curvature radius of the Earth’s surface of ∼6400 km and the linac length of ∼12 km the maximum trajectory sagitta is about 2.8m.
So on a flat earth the ends of the SLAC are buried deeper below the surface than the center?
