II. Scope & Description

Physical Review Special Topics - Accelerators and Beams (PRST-AB), is a peer reviewed, purely electronic journal, distributed without charge to readers and funded by contributions from national laboratories. It covers the full range of accelerator science and technology: subsystem and component technologies, beam dynamics; accelerator applications; and design, operation, and improvement of accelerators used in science and industry. This includes accelerators for high-energy and nuclear physics, synchrotron radiation production, spallation neutron sources, medical therapy, and intense beam applications.
