1 Acceleration of Charged Particles by Dr.Ken Taylor

2 Why Accelerate Particles? To probe sub-nuclear world

3 Tw o-fold Nature ofparticle Accelerators 1. To provide high energy projectiles for: Breaking particles into constituents Creating new particles according to mass - energy relation E = mc 2 Pair Production Pair Annihilation

4 Two-Fold N atu re of Particle A ccelerators Pair Production Rochester, C. D. and J. G. Wilson; Cloud Chamber Photographs of the Cosmic Radiation; Pergamon Press, Ltd., 1952.

5 Tw o-fold Nature Accelerators ofparticle 2. To serve as a microscope in which projectiles of ultra-short wavelength probe the sub-nuclear world according to the matter - wave relation λ = h/p.

21 Electrostatic Accelerators: Disadvantages Electrostatic Accelerators lim ited to 1 M V (Due to arcing discharges) Allcharges accelerated th rou gh gaps having electric fields established by potentialdifferences

22 Radio-Frequency Accelerator: The LINAC First con stru cted by R.Wideroe in kev Idea:replace single wide gap oflarge potentialdifference with succession of many sm aller gaps having sm aller potentialdifferences Thus:acceleration tak es place across a sequence ofa large num ber ofsm all steps (rather than one large step)

27 Circular Accelerators:The Synchrotron Idea:R euse sam e accelerating structure (RF typ e --- similar to LINAC)to save space and m oney Circular array ofbending magnets (causes particles to circulate again and again and obtain energy boosts during each orbit) Magnetic field ofm agnets increases as particle energy increases in order to maintain constant radius ofm otion

29 Synchrotron M agnetic force provides requ ired centripetalacceleration of moving charges Required force to maintain fixed radius increases due to increase in velocity and m ass ofcharges

30 Synchrotron M aximum magnetic field of bending m agnets approxim ately 8-10 Tesla M aximum field places lim it on energy ofaccelerator for given radius or accelerator size Greater energies th u s requ ire greater realestate to reduce requ ired centripetalforce (due to larger radius)
