Work on the 7-Bev proton synchrotron which represents the first circular accelerator with strong focusing built in the Soviet Union, was started in 1953. In order to establish the feasibility of this machine, resonance phenomena at betatron frequencies, phase raotion of the panticles, theoretical problems connected with the injection and scattering of protons were studied while carrying out calculations on the desired field configuration and on electronics problems. Instead of attempting to optiraize the weight of the magnets, the parameters were chosen as to make the system adaptable for many purposes. The magnetic system included 14 quadrupole magnets with negatively bent orbits having curvatures twice smaller than the other magnets. A 4-Mev electrostatic generator was used as injector; in view of this low injection energy the dimensions of the chamber were made larger than necessary. The acceleration was carried out at the 7th harmonic of the revolution frequency. The acceleration was carried out at the 7th harmonic of the revolution frequency. The main assembly was completed at the beginning of 1961 at which time the beam experiments were started. A proton energy of 7.2 Bev was reached at an intensity of 3to 5. lO/sup 9/ particles/pulse. By November the internal target unit was placed in position. (TTT)
