Title: Principle of sector focusing
Description: The principle of sector focusing: a particle crossing the bulging field at the edge of a sector is pushed back into the horizontal plane. One reason for Lawrence's eagerness to proceed with the Mark III cyclotron was to test the principle of sector focusing. (The preceding information was excerpted from the text of the Fall 1981 issue of LBL Newsmagazine.)
