11Electron-Cloud Effect — The Electron Cloud Effect (ECE) is a phenomenon associated with particle accelerators. Explanation Electron clouds are created when accelerated charged particles disturb stray electrons already floating in the tube, and bounce or slingshot the… …
12Electron spectrometer — In an Electron spectrometer, an incoming beam of electrons is bent with electric or magnetic fields. As higher energy electrons will be bent less by the beam, this produces a spatially distributed range of energies. Electron spectrometers are… …
13Accelerator Test Facility — The Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) is a test accelerator in the KEK laboratory in Tsukuba, Japan. It is a test bed for production of the beam for the proposed International Linear Collider (ILC) linear electron positron collider.Its main goal is …
14Particle accelerator — Atom smasher redirects here. For other uses, see Atom smasher (disambiguation). A 1960s single stage 2 MeV linear Van de Graaff accelerator, here opened for maintenance A particle accelerator[1] is a device that uses electromagnetic fields to… …
15SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory — SLAC redirects here. For other uses, see SLAC (disambiguation). SLAC at Stanford University The SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, originally named Stanford Linear Accelerator Center,[1] …
16Stanford Linear Accelerator Center — The Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) is a United States Department of Energy National Laboratory operated by Stanford University under the programmatic direction of the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science. The SLAC research… …
17Free electron laser — A free electron laser, or FEL, is a laser that shares the same optical properties as conventional lasers such as emitting a beam consisting of coherent electromagnetic radiation which can reach high power, but which uses some very different… …
18Particle beam weapon — A particle beam weapon uses an ultra high energy beam of atoms or electrons (i.e., a particle beam) to damage a material target by hitting it, and thus disrupting its atomic and molecular structure. A particle beam weapon is a type of directed… …
19External beam radiotherapy — otherwise known as teletherapy, is the most frequently used form of radiotherapy. The patient sits or lies on a couch and an external source of radiation is pointed at a particular part of the body. Kilovoltage (also known as Superficial or Deep) …
20Particle beam — A particle beam is an accelerated stream of charged particles or neutrons (often moving at very near the speed of light) which may be directed by magnets and focused by electrostatic lenses, although they may also be self focusing (see… …
