A storage ring is a type of circular in which a continuous or pulsed may be kept circulating, typically for many hours. Storage of a particular depends upon the,, and usually the of the particle to be stored. Storage rings most commonly store,, or . Storage rings are most often used to store electrons that radiate . Over 50 facilitie.

A force must be applied to particles in such a way that they are constrained to move in an approximately-circular path. This may be accomplished using either dipole electrostatic or dipole magnetic fields, but because most storage rings store charged particles, it turns out that it is most practical to use magnetic fields produced by . However, electrostatic accelerators have been built to store very.
