  2. Synchrocyclotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchrocyclotron

    The Liverpool synchrocyclotron first demonstrated the extraction of a particle beam from such a machine, removing the constraint of having to fit experiments inside the synchrocyclotron. [ 3 ] At a UNESCO meeting in Paris in December 1951, there was a discussion on finding a solution to have a medium-energy accelerator for the soon-to-be-formed ...

  3. Synchrotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchrotron

    The first synchrotron to use the "racetrack" design with straight sections, a 300 MeV electron synchrotron at University of Michigan in 1949, designed by Dick Crane.. A synchrotron is a particular type of cyclic particle accelerator, descended from the cyclotron, in which the accelerating particle beam travels around a fixed closed-loop path.

  4. Cyclotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotron

    An approach which combines static magnetic fields (as in the synchrocyclotron) and alternating gradient focusing (as in a synchrotron) is the fixed-field alternating gradient accelerator (FFA). In an isochronous cyclotron, the magnetic field is shaped by using precisely machined steel magnet poles.

  5. Synchro-Cyclotron (CERN) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro-Cyclotron_(CERN)

    In the same year, the Synchrocyclotron started to concentrate on nuclear physics alone, leaving particle physics to a more powerful accelerator built in 1959, the Proton Synchrotron. In May 1966, the Synchrocyclotron was shut down for major modifications. Until mid-July, the capacity of the SC and its associated facilities were improved.

  6. Proton Synchrotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_Synchrotron

    The synchrotron (as in Proton Synchrotron) is a type of cyclic particle accelerator, descended from the cyclotron, in which the accelerating particle beam travels around a fixed path. The magnetic field which bends the particle beam into its fixed path increases with time, and is synchronized to the increasing energy of the particles.

  7. Cyclotron radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotron_radiation

    When the electrons are moving at relativistic speeds, cyclotron radiation is known as synchrotron radiation. The recoil experienced by a particle emitting cyclotron radiation is called radiation reaction. Radiation reaction acts as a resistance to motion in a cyclotron; and the work necessary to overcome it is the main energetic cost of ...

  8. Series and parallel springs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_springs

    The following table gives formula for the spring that is equivalent to a system of two springs, in series or in parallel, whose spring constants are and . [1] The compliance c {\displaystyle c} of a spring is the reciprocal 1 / k {\displaystyle 1/k} of its spring constant.)

  9. SPring-8 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPring-8

    The Laser Electron Photon Experiment at SPring-8 (LEPS) is an experiment producing high-energy photon beams by the inverse Compton scattering of photons upon the 8 GeV electrons of the SPring-8 synchrotron. These are then used for various particle physics experiments on hadrons. The first beam was produced in 1999, and data-taking commenced in ...
