MeSH definition : Devices for accelerating protons or electrons in closed orbits where the accelerating
voltage and magnetic field strength varies (the accelerating voltage is held constant
for electrons) in order to keep the orbit radius constant.;
MeSH synonym : synchrotron;
MeSH annotation : particle accelerators; do not confuse with SYNCHROCYCLOTRONS see CYCLOTRONS;
