The Saskatchewan Accelerator Laboratory (SAL) was a linear accelerator facility on the University of Saskatchewan campus in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. The facility was constructed in 1962 at a cost of $1.7M under the direction of Leon Katz.[1] SAL was identified by the OECD as a National Large-Scale Facility.[2] SAL provided support for radiology, chemistry and sub-atomic physics research.
