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 event at two of these devices 3000 miles apart was termed the (*) “November Revolution.” Ernest Lawrence invented a resonant type of these devices with two D-shaped chambers, which uses magnetic fields oscillating with (-5[1])frequency “qB over m.” Examples of these devices that bend trajectories into circular (-5[1])shapes emit synchrotron radiation. For 10 points, SLAC and the Large Hadron Collider are what devices (-5[1])that propel charged (10[1])beams of particles? ■END■ (10[2])

ANSWER: particle accelerators [accept linear accelerators; anti-prompt on cyclotrons or synchrotrons or storage rings before mention]
