Descriptor Spanish: Sincrotrones
Descriptor sincrotrones
Scope note: Dispositivos para acelerar protones o electrones en órbitas cerradas donde el voltaje de aceleración y la fuerza del campo magnético varían (el voltaje de aceleración se mantiene constante para los electrones) para mantener el radio de la órbita constante.
