The Pan-American Highway is a network of roads nearly 48, 000 kilometres(29, 800 miles) in total length. Except for an 87 kilometre(54 mi) rainforest gap, called the Darién Gap, the road links the mainland nations of the Americas in a connected highway system. According to Guinness World Records, the Pan-American Highway is the world's longest "motorable road". However, because of the Darién Gap, it is not possible to cross between South America and Central America by traditional motor vehicle. The Pan-American Highway system is mostly complete and extends from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, in North America to the lower reaches of South America. Several highway termini are claimed to exist, including the cities of Puerto Montt and Quellón in Chile and Ushuaia in Argentina. No comprehensive route is officially defined in Canada and the United States, though several highways there are called "Pan-American". The Pan-American Highway passes through many diverse climates and ecological types, from dense jungles to cold mountain passes. Since the highway passes through many countries, it is far from uniform. Some stretches of the highway are passable only during the dry season, and in many regions driving is occasionally hazardous.  1, record 1, English, - Pan%2DAmerican%20Highway

La transaméricaine ou autoroute panaméricaine est un système de voies rapides et d'autoroutes qui relie l'ensemble des Amériques : il est composé d'un axe principal qui parcourt le continent du nord au sud et de plusieurs axes secondaires transversaux. Sa longueur varie de 24 000 à 48 000 km [...], en raison du décompte d'axes secondaires ou de sections ne faisant pas officiellement partie du réseau; en particulier, l'ensemble du réseau routier fédéral des USA est officiellement reconnu comme faisant partie du système panaméricain, sans axe privilégié, ni signalisation particulière. Pour ces mêmes raisons, les différents auteurs ne s'accordent pas sur les points extrémaux du réseau. Conçue en 1923 pour être une route unique, la panaméricaine est finalement un raccord de différentes autoroutes construites par les pays participant au projet. La connexion du nord au sud est quasiment achevée : en 1997, il restait à réaliser deux tronçons totalisant 87 kilomètres au niveau du Panama et de la Colombie, mais la nécessité de traverser des parcs nationaux suscite une forte opposition et occasionne un retard important.  1, record 1, French, - transam%C3%A9ricaine

La Carretera Panamericana o "Ruta Panamericana", es un sistema colectivo de carreteras, de aproximadamente 48.000 km de largo, que vincula a casi todos los países del hemisferio occidental del continente americano con un tramo unido de carretera. Fue concebida en la V Conferencia Internacional de los Estados Americanos en 1923, celebrándose el Primer Congreso Panamericano de Carreteras en Buenos Aires en 1925, al que siguieron los de 1929 y 1939. La Carretera Panamericana se encuentra casi completa, y se extiende desde Alaska en América del Norte hasta la Patagonia en América del Sur. El tramo notable que impide que la carretera se conecte completamente es un tramo de 87 km de selva montañosa dura, ubicado entre el extremo este de Panamá y el noroeste de Colombia llamado el Tapón de Darién.  1, record 1, Spanish, - Carretera%20Panamericana

A hockey goaltender's glove is described, in which the pocket is divided by a central web split into two side-by-side web portions along a substantial part of its length, or by two separate web portions, the web portions being tied by webbing such that a gap is created between them, spanned by webbing. By virtue of the web portions and the gap, the pocket flexes and closes around the puck more easily, thereby providing more reliable trapping of the puck.  1, record 3, English, - goaltender%27s%20glove

Linear proton accelerators. The design principle applied in linear accelerators for protons was originated by Luis Alvarez at Berkeley in 1946. It is based on the formation of standing electromagnetic waves in a long cylindrical metal tank, or cavity, as it is sometimes called. In the design that has been adopted, the electric field is parallel to the axis of the tank. Most of these accelerators operate at frequencies of about 200 MHz. During the time required for a proton to traverse one of these tanks, the accelerating electric fields undergo many reversal of direction. In Alvarez’ design, the decelerating effect of the field during the intervals when it opposes the motion of the particles is prevented by installing on the axis of the tank a number of "drift tubes".... The electric field is zero inside the drift tubes, and if their lengths are properly chosen, the protons cross the gap between adjacent drift tubes when the direction of the field produces acceleration and are shielded by the drift tubes when the field in the tank would decelerate them. The length of the drift tubes are proportional to the speeds of the particles that pass through them.  1, record 11, English, - linear%20proton%20accelerator

Une cavité résonnante cylindrique est excitée à une fréquence d'environ 200 MHz (...) Il s'agit d'une onde électromagnétique caractérisée par un champ magnétique perpendiculaire à la direction de propagation et un champ électrique possédant une composition parallèle à la direction de propagation. Pour que les protons ne soient soumis au champ électrique que pendant une phase accélératrice, des tubes de glissement, formant cage de Faraday pour les particules les traversant, sont disposés suivant l'axe de la cavité. (...) La longueur des tubes croît à mesure que la vitesse des protons augmente.  1, record 11, French, - acc%C3%A9l%C3%A9rateur%20lin%C3%A9aire%20%C3%A0%20protons
