Birmingham, 24 Feb 09: Storage Rings6 Basic Principles and Design Charged particles are guided in a vacuum pipe around a ring using dipole magnetic fields. They are strongly focused into bunches using quadrupole magnetic fields and rf cavity electric field – the key to stable circulation. Fine tuning to the focusing is made using sextupole magnets. Energy is lost by radiation when particles are bent by magnetic fields, or by collision with residual gas. Energy is replenished in the rf cavity by electric fields in the same direction as the particle orbit. Diagnostic instruments are available to measure beam position, beam profile and radiation profile.
