Bildinfo
- Ein Betatron aus dem Jahr 1956: der Michigan Mark I FFAG-Beschleuniger. Elektronen konnten bis auf 400 keV beschleunigt werden.
- The horizontal ring centered in the photo was composed of alternating positive (big) and negative (small) bending magnets. These enclosed the vacuum chamber that accommodated particle orbits between 0.7 and 1.0m diameter. Magnet power was provided by one of the two motor-generator sets partially visible in the upper left. The large rectangular yoke on the right of the photo is the water-cooled betatron core, a transformer core where the secondary winding was the particle beam being accelerated. The primary winding on the betatron core was excited by 500Hz AC provided by the other motor generator set. A bank of large capacitors, not visible, was wired across the betatron primary winding improve the power factor.
