Can somebody show me the physics of why it's better to have a circular accelerator than a linear accelerator in terms of size? I know that a linear accelerator needs to be a lot bigger than a circular accelerator to produce the same energy, but I can't think of how to show this using physics equations. If anybody could show me I'd be very grateful.
