Strong focusing of high energy particles in a synchrotron storage ring

Claim 1

ALTERNATING GRADIENT MAGNETIC FOCUSING AND BENDING MEANS FOR A HIGH ENERGY, HIGH INTENSITY BEAM OF PROTONS TRAVELING WITH SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME MOMENTUM IN A COLUMN HAVING AN AXIS IN A FIRST PLANE, COMPRISING SPACED MAGNETIC POLE MEANS DISPOSED SYMMETRICALLY ABOUT SAID FIRST PLANE TO FORM A GAP FOR RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING SAID BEAM IN SAID FIRST PLANE, SAID MAGNETIC POLE MEANS BEING TRAPEZOIDALLY SHAPED IN CROSS-SECTIONAL PLANES PARALLEL TO SAID FIRST PLANE AND HAVING FIRST AND SECOND OPPOSITELY DIRECTED ENDS FORMED IN SECOND AND THIRD PLANES AT RIGHT ANGLES TO SAID FIRST PLANE AND INTERSECTING THEREWITH IN RESPECTIVE OPPOSITELY DIRECTED FIRST AND SECOND LINES, SAID SECOND PLANE OF SAID FIRST ENDS BEING ADAPTED TO RECEIVE SAID BEAM WITH SAID BEAM AXIS INTERSECTING ON A BIAS OBLIQUELY WITH SAID FIRST LINE IN A STEEP GRADIENT, AND MEANS PRODUCING A MAGNETIC FIELD IN SAID GAP HAVING A MAGNETIC FLUX ACTING ON SAID PARTICLES THROUGH SAID POLE MEANS FOR BENDING SAID BEAM AXIS FOR TRANSMITTING SAID PARTICLES THROUGH SAID THIRD PLANE WITH SAID BEAM AXIS INTERSECTING ON A BIAS OBLIQUELY WITH SAID SECOND LINE IN A STEEP GRADIENT OPPOSITELY OBLIQUELY TO THE INTERSECTION OF SAID AXIS AND SAID FIRST LINE SO AS TO EXPOSE SAID BEAM PARTICLES TO ALTERNATING GRADIENT MAGNETIC FOCUSING WITH SAID OPPOSITELY DIRECTED FIRST AND SECOND ENDS.
