= Weak focusing
{wiki=Weak_focusing}
Weak focusing is a concept used in the field of accelerator physics, particularly in the design of particle accelerators. It refers to the approach of using magnetic fields that provide only a weak or moderate degree of focusing for charged particles, such as electrons or protons, compared to strong focusing methods. In accelerators, focusing is essential for keeping the particle beam tightly packed and well-defined as it travels through the accelerator structure.
