The T-3 device [a tokamak] in operation at the Kurchatov Institute of Technology (Soviet Union) since 1962 is the prototypical example of toroidal confinement of plasma. The magnetic field lines in such closed geometries are constrained to follow toroidal surfaces, and the plasma particles (to first approximation) spiral along the field lines. 3, record 1, English, - closed%20configuration

Tokamak... is an acronym created from the Russian words, "TOroidalnaya KAmera ee MAgnitnaya Katushka, "or "Toroidal Chamber and Magnetic Coil, "and denotes a class of systems for the toroidal magnetic confinement of thermonuclear fusion plasmas. Originally designed by Andrei Sakharov(1921-1989) and developed in the USSR, the tokamak began setting performance records for magnetic confinement fusion systems in the late 1960s and remains the leading concept for magnetic confinement fusion today. The tokamak configuration is perhaps most easily visualized by considering a cylindrical vacuum tube(typically of D or O-shaped cross section) which has been bent around a symmetry axis into a torus. 1, record 10, English, - tokamak%20configuration

The DC motor can be made to run faster than the basic "balancing speed" achieved whilst in the full parallel configuration without any resistance in circuit. This is done by "field shunting". An additional circuit is provided in the motor field to weaken the current flowing through the field. The weakening is achieved by placing a resistance in parallel with the field. This has the effect of forcing the armature to speed up to restore the balance between its magnetic filed and that being produced in the field coils. It makes the train go faster. 2, record 13, English, - field%20shunting

Le shuntage consiste à réduire le bobinage du stator des moteurs à courant continu, diminuant ainsi le champ d'excitation des inducteurs. Conséquence, la courbe effort-vitesse des moteurs subit une déformation qui fait glisser la locomotive vers des vitesses plus élevées et ce tout en gardant la même puissance. Cette opération qui permet de pousser la locomotive à courant continu dans ses derniers retranchements est également utile pour effectuer le démarrage de convoi lourd sans dépasser les limites de courants dans la caténaire. 1, record 13, French, - shuntage%20par%20d%C3%A9rivation

One of the chief problems in any accelerator system is that of maintaining spatial control over the beam; this requires some form of focusing.... A wide variety of focusing principles and devices are used in different accelerator types. The natural bowing-out of magnetic field lines in a cyclotron magnet results in a net focusing action... ;so also does the electrostatic field line configuration between drift tubes of many simple linear accelerators.
