Accelerator
(gcide) | Accelerator \Ac*cel"er*a`tor\, n.
One who, or that which, accelerates. Also as an adj.; as,
accelerator nerves.
[1913 Webster] |
Acceleratory
(gcide) | Acceleratory \Ac*cel"er*a*to*ry\, a.
Accelerative.
[1913 Webster] |
colliding beam accelerator
(gcide) | Particle accelerator \Par"ti*cle ac*cel"er*a*tor\, n. (Physics)
A large and expensive scientific instrument used by
physicists to accelerate elementary particles (such as
protons or electrons) to speeds near that of light, for the
purpose of investigating the fundamental properties of
matter; sometimes also called an atom smasher, since the
particles thus accelerated are often directed at targets of
atoms which are fragmented by the impact into their more
fundamental component particles.
Note: The particles generated by impact of a beam in an
accelerator on its target are detected by various types
of detecting apparatus, and procedures are required to
sort and identify the many particles created. The
fundamental particles generated by impacts in a
particle accelerator are often those not actually
present inside atoms; and in certain types of particle
accelerator, such as the colliding beam accelerator,
the impact which generates energetic particles is with
other fundamental particles, and not with atoms.

colliding-beam accelerator
(gcide) | colliding-beam machine \colliding-beam machine\ n. (Physics)
a particle accelerator in which two separate beams of
particles (usually of opposite charge) are circulated in
opposite directions and directed so as to collide head on; --
called also colliding-beam accelerator and collider.
Note: This technique allows the production of collisions of
higher energy than would be possible with a single beam
produced by the same device.
Syn: particle collider; colliding-beam accelerator; collider.

floating-point accelerator
(foldoc) | floating-point accelerator
(FPA) Additional hardware to perform functions on
floating point numbers such as addition, multiplication,
logarithms, exponentials, trigonometric functions and
various kinds of rounding and error detection. A floating
point accelerator often functions as a co-processor to the
CPU.
The term "floating-point accelerator" suggests a physically
larger system, often an extra circuit board, whereas a
"floating-point unit" is probably a single chip or even part
of a chip.

graphics accelerator
(foldoc) | graphics accelerator
Hardware (often an extra circuit board)
to perform tasks such as plotting lines and surfaces in two or
three dimensions, filling, shading and hidden line removal.
