- Gamma rays
- Highest energy waves and can kill cells
- Beamline
- Part five of Synchrotron
- Electron gun
- Part one of Synchrotron
- Radio waves
- low energy waves that are used to communicate over long distances through radio and television.
- Linac
- Part two of Synchrotron
- Electromagnet
- a temporary magnet consisting of a coil of wire and an iron core
- Frequency
- The number of complete vibrations or waves made in one second.
- Electromagnetic spectrum
- Complete range of wavelengths of energy radiated as electric and magnetic fields
- Booster ring
- Part three of Synchrotron
- Wavelength
- the distance between any two points to its neighbouring wave.
- Electromagnetic waves
- waves that transmit energy from one place to another
- wave
- transmit of energy without the movement of particles from one place, to another
- Pitch
- Variations of frequencies.
- Synchrotron
- a building-sized device that uses electrons accelerater to near the speed of light to produce intense electromagnetic radiation.
- Amplitude
- The max distance that each particle moves away from its usual resting position
- Solenoid
- The coil of wire in a electromagnet
- Transverse waves
- Waves on water in which the movement of particles travel at right angles to the direction of energy transfer
- X-rays
- Higher energy waves that can pass through human flesh
- Permanent magnets
- Magnets that retain their magnetism at all times`
- Hertz
- The measurement used for frequency
- Compression wave
- Sounds waves. The movement of particles move backwards and forwards in the same direction of energy transfer
- Storage ring
- Part four of Synchrotron
- Experimental station
- Part six of Synchrotron
- Temporary magnets
- Magnets that lose magnetism when removed from other magnets
