A '''Fixed-Field Alternatingalternating Gradientgradient acceleratorAccelerator''' ('''FFA''') is a circular [[particle accelerator]] concept on which development was started in the early 50s, and that can be characterized by its time-independent magnetic fields (''fixed-field'', like in a [[cyclotron]]) and the use of [[strong focusing]] (''alternating gradient'', like in a [[synchrotron]]).<ref name=briefhistory>{{Cite journal
