Question

The Livingston chart depicts the development of these devices. A detector called a pickup and a corrective “kicker” are used in a feedback mechanism in these devices called stochastic cooling. The Bjorken-Mtingwa model describes a form of scattering in these devices that causes phase space volume to increase, increasing the emittance. In 1974, a simultaneous pair of discoveries at two of these devices (15[1])3000 miles apart was termed the (*) “November (10[1])Revolution.” Ernest Lawrence invented a resonant (10[1])type of these devices with two D-shaped chambers, which uses magnetic fields oscillating with frequency “qB over m.” Synchrotron radiation may be produced by examples of these devices that bend trajectories into circular shapes. For 10 points, SLAC and the Large Hadron Collider are what devices that propel charged beams of particles? ■END■

ANSWER: particle accelerators [accept linear accelerators; anti-prompt on cyclotrons or synchrotrons or storage rings until read; prompt on particle detectors by asking, “as components of what devices?”]
