proton synchrotron [′prō‚tän ′siŋ·krə‚trän]

(nucleonics)

A device for accelerating protons in circular orbits in a time-varying magnetic field, in which the orbit radius is kept constant.

Synchrotron, Proton

a cyclic resonance accelerator of protons with an orbit of constant radius. The guiding magnetic field increases with time, and the accelerating voltage is of variable frequency.
