Accelerator – instrument ?
The appearance and development of the accelerators, is mainly connected with needs of
nuclear physicists and physicists of high energy. The knowledge about fundamental
characteristic of the matters is connected with explanation and understanding of the
phenomenas, occurring on small distanses. The scale of the distances for molecular and
atomic physics refers to 10-8 cm, physics of the elementary particles requires less lengths.
Today most small particle, measured in experiment is electron (< 10-16cm), but by theoretical
assumptions this must be point-like particle. Nucleui forces comparable to the radius of protron
(~ 10-13cm) refers to the energy of colliding particles of the order of several MeV.
Corresponding estimations can be done if to use principe of the uncertainties

Then for x=10-13 cm we immediately get p ~ 200 MeV/c. Distance of the order 10-16 cm
requires energy 1-10 GeV. The discoveries had been made on accelerators in this
energy field are: family of φ - particles, particles with new quantum number.
The further development of the theoretical presentations supported by possibility
of new accelerators had brought to discovery of parton structure of hadrons,
neutral and charged vector bosons. The next expectation is probably connected
with finding of Higgs particles (1 TeV for pp ???).
Further development of intensive accelerators is a possibility of their usage as

generators of the secondary particles: neutrons, mesons, neutrionos.

nature. We can take for rough estimations only Lorentz force (electromagnetic

Classical cyclotron
In 1930 E.Lawrence (USA) had created first cyclic accelerator – cyclotron
with energy 1 MeV (diameter 25 cm).
S.Livingstone and E.Lawrence near by cyclotron
of the next generation. It let accelerate protons
and deutrons up to energies of several MeV 22
At a constant magnetic field it is possible to provide such a gain of energy in the gap that
the increase of the particle revolution period will be equal to the period of radiofrequency oscillations and on the next turn the particle will be in the desired phase
again. Such way of acceleration - a classical cyclotron, an orbit of a particle is
untwisted spiral in it. To keep the synchronism frequency of the acceleration field should
satisfy to a condition: 0==eB/m. Thus kinetic energy grows linearly with number of
turns: Ekin 2eU. After reaching the maximal energy and accordingly the maximal
radius of the orbit, the accelerated particles are extracted to a target for experiments

Particle emerging from a source pass through the accelerating cavity and follow then a circular
orbit in a uniform magnetic field leading back to the accelerating cavity. After each acceleration
the particles follow a circle with a bigger radius till they reach the boundary of the magnet.
