Study Notes
Cyclotron Accelerator
- Invented by E.O. Lawrence and M.S. Livingston in 1934
- A type of particle accelerator that uses a circular path to accelerate charged particles
- Charged particles accelerate through a "Dee" in a cyclotron accelerator
- Particles are directed towards a designated target for a specific purpose
Operating Principle
- Based on Lorentz's force, which is the fundamental principle behind the cyclotron accelerator
