This article needs to be cleaned up. There is confusion as to the distiction between an electrostatic type Linear Accelerator and a RF based "Linac". Both types of accelerator should be covered in the article, but at the moment there is a confused mess as to which one is being talked about in each section. Martyman 04:31, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
- There seems to be a large number of people editing these articles but no-one has commented on my suggestion here. Do people agree that linear accelerators include non-rf machines? --Martyman-(talk) 00:13, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
There should be a headline for the actual explaination how the LINAC works, not just "A linear particle accelerator consists of the following elements". It can be irritating. 16:00, 15 December 2005 (GMT)
[edit] medical linacs
need a mention. they are most common type of linac. Andybuckle 16:01, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] explain...
"Medical grade LINACs accelerate electrons using a complex bending magnet arrangement and a 6-30 million..." Once the particles are forced into a magenetic field whose force field is not along the kinteic vector syncroton radition is unavoidable.....where's the mistake?Slicky 08:32, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
