Technicians speak of an electron "beam," but it is incorrect to think off the machine as producing a continuous flow of high-energy electrons. In reality, the electrons spurt into the ring from the linear accelerator in bunches of 100 million at the rate of 60 bunches per second. At 16 places in the ring, there are radio-frequency powered acceleration cavities. Each time the electron bunch passes through a cavity, its energy increases. The electron pulses thus receive discrete "kicks" of energy as they orbit, until they have finally reached the energy level desired for any particular experiment...

This was the proposal to girdle the earth with a belt of fine metal needle, thus forming an artificial ionosphere to be used for long-distance communications. The International Astronomical Union, including the U.S. delegation, condemned the Westford experiment because of its probable deleterious effect on radio astronomical observations...
