Cyclotron:
- Cyclotron is a device used to accelerate charged bodies to very high velocities (or high kinetic energies) using crossed (or mutually perpendicular) electric and magnetic fields
- Cyclotron is based on the independency of frequency (of rotation of charged particle) on the energy (velocity) and radius (of revolution) of charged particle. The motion of charge , electric field, and the magnetic field are mutually perpendicular(θ= 90°), so:
fc = 1/T = qB(sinθ)/(2πm) = qB/(2πm)
- Cyclotron is made up of 2 hollow metallic discs D1 and D2, semi-circular in shape and an oscillator.
