The Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) is a particle accelerator located at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Long Island, New York, United States. The Alternating Gradient Synchrotron was built on the innovative concept of the alternating gradient, or strong-focusing principle, developed by Brookhaven physicists. This new concept in accelerator design allowed scientists to accelerate protons to energies that were previously unachievable. The AGS became the world's premiere accelerator when it reached its design energy of 33 billion electron volts (GeV) on July 29, 1960.

  • The Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS) is a particle accelerator located at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in Long Island, New York, United States. The Alternating Gradient Synchrotron was built on the innovative concept of the alternating gradient, or strong-focusing principle, developed by Brookhaven physicists. This new concept in accelerator design allowed scientists to accelerate protons to energies that were previously unachievable. The AGS became the world's premiere accelerator when it reached its design energy of 33 billion electron volts (GeV) on July 29, 1960. Until 1968, the AGS was the highest energy accelerator in the world, slightly higher than its 28 GeV sister machine, the Proton Synchrotron at CERN, the European laboratory for high-energy physics. While 21st century accelerators can reach energies in the trillion electron volt region, the AGS earned researchers three Nobel Prizes and today serves as the injector for Brookhaven's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider; it remains the world's highest intensity high-energy proton accelerator. The AGS Booster, constructed in 1991, further augments the capabilities of the AGS, enabling it to accelerate more intense proton beams and heavy ions such as Gold. Brookhaven's linear particle accelerator (LINAC) provides 200 million electron volt (MeV) protons to the AGS Booster, and the Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) and Tandem Van de Graaff accelerators provide other ions to the AGS Booster. The AGS Booster then accelerates these particles for injection into the AGS. The AGS Booster also provides particle beams to the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory. (en)

O AGS tornou-se o primeiro acelerador do mundo quando atingiu sua energia projetada de 33 bilhões de elétron-volts (GeV) em 29 de julho de 1960. Até 1968, o AGS era o acelerador de maior energia do mundo, ligeiramente superior à sua máquina irmã de 28 GeV, o Proton Synchrotron do CERN, o laboratório europeu de física de alta energia. Enquanto os aceleradores do século XIX podem atingir energias na região de trilhões de elétron-volts, o AGS rendeu aos pesquisadores três prêmios Nobel e hoje serve como injetor para o Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider de Brookhaven; continua sendo o acelerador de prótons de alta energia de maior intensidade do mundo. O AGS Booster, construído em 1991, aumenta ainda mais as capacidades do AGS, permitindo que ele acelere feixes de prótons mais intensos e íons pesados, como o ouro. O acelerador de partículas linear de Brookhaven (LINAC) fornece 200 milhões de elétrons-volt (MeV) prótons para o AGS Booster, e os aceleradores Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) e Tandem Van de Graaff fornecem outros íons para o AGS Booster. O AGS Booster então acelera essas partículas para injeção no AGS. O AGS Booster também fornece feixes de partículas para o Laboratório de Radiação Espacial da NASA. (pt)
