In this device, the namesake angular frequency is independent of the particle energy, and is given by the charge times the magnetic field strength over the mass. It is similar to a mass spectrometer, but an alternating voltage is applied across the gap between the two large dipole magnets, which are D-shaped. FTP name this first type of particle accelerator, developed by Ernest O. Lawrence and later improved to make the synchrotron.
