Most modern synchrotrons employ the alterning-gradient or strong-focusing principle which minimizes the volume of the magnetic guide field, so that while the circumference of the orbit may be almost a kilometer, the cross-sectional dimensions of the evacuated volume surrounding the beam need be only a few centimeters. 3, record 2, English, - alternating%20gradient%20synchrotron

Accélérateur d’électrons ou de particules lourdes fonctionnant sur les mêmes principes généraux que le synchrotron, mais dans lequel on emploie un champ de guidage à structure périodique caractérisé par une alternance du gradient du champ magnétique sur l’orbite, afin de donner des effets de focalisation importants permettant de réduire l’ouverture de la machine. 1, record 2, French, - synchrotron%20%C3%A0%20gradient%20altern%C3%A9
