I was immediately reminded of the Bohr--de Broglie model of electron orbits forming standing waves.
Those applications are: i) maximizing the electron beam quality from a radiofrequency photocathode for its application in the SLAC X-ray laser facility currently under development, the first of its kind in the world; ii) accurately modeling electron beam loss in the SLAC SPEAR3 electron storage ring with a goal to further increase efficiency at the synchrotron X-ray laboratory; and iii) optimizing local electron orbit correction in an electron storage ring for enhanced, robust control.
All the scientists had to do was make one positively charged electron orbit one negatively charged proton.
