It is a series of magnets designed to periodically laterally deflect wiggle a beam of charged particles invariably electron s or positron s inside a storage ring of a synchrotron. These deflections produce emission of broadband synchrotron radiation much like that of a bending magnet , but the intensity is higher due to the contribution of many magnet dipoles in the wiggler.

Unreferenced date December 2009 about the particle accelerator at Cern proton synchrotrons in general Synchrotron Image PS Surface 28 September 2005 .jpg thumb The surface above the PS at CERN . After more than 45 years, the ring shaped accelerator is hardly visible due to later constructions. However it can still be seen as a raised area in the lower left part of the photo. The Proton Synchrotron PS is the first major particle accelerator at CERN , built as a 28 GeV proton accelerator in the late 1950s and put into operation in 1959. It takes the protons from the Proton Synchrotron Booster at a kinetic energy of 1.4 GeV and lead ions from the Low Energy Ion Ring LEIR at 72 MeV per nucleon. It has been operated as an injector for the Intersecting Storage Rings ISR , the Super Proton Synchrotron SPS and the Large Electron Positron Collider LEP . Starting in November 2009, the PS machine delivers protons and will provide lead ion beams for the Large Hadron Collider LHC . It has also been used as a particle source for other experiments, such as the Gargamelle bubble chamber for which it supplied a neutrino beam. This led to the discovery of the Weak interaction weak neutral current in 1974. The PS machine is a circular accelerator with a circumference of 628.3 m. It is a versatile machine having accelerated proton s, antiproton s, electron s, positron s and species of ion s. Major upgrades have improved its performance by more than a factor of 1000 since 1959. The only main components remaining from its original installation some 50 years ago are the bending magnets and the buildings.

In such a machine, a charged particle such as an electron is accelerated to nearly the speed of light around a track. When this is done, it produces a wide range of light. This light is not just limited to the visible light we see but also includes radio waves to x rays. After the discovery in 1947 researchers started noticing useful traits of the light coming from these particle accelerators.
