Experimental pressure dependence of the accelerated current in the chamber of the sirius synchrotron

An experimental study of the dependence of the accelerated charge in the synchrotron on the vacuum-chamber pressure is reported. The results are compared with calculations; in the pressure range 5 · 10^–6–2 · 10^–5 torr, the experimental and calculated results agree well.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, Vol. 12, No. 2, pp. 31–35, February, 1969.The authors thank P. P. Krasnonosen'kikh for assistance in the experiments and G. P. Fomenko for discussion of the results.
