motion -> acceleration
or deceleration
-> For acceleration an electric field needs to be produced:
• static: need a high voltage: e.g. Cockroft Walton generator,
van de Graaff accelerator
• with a changing magnetic field: e.g. betatron
• with a high-frequent voltage which creates an accelerating field across one
or more regions at times that particles pass these regions: e.g. cyclotron
• with high-frequency electro-magnetic waves in cavities

University of California at Berkeley.
1939 Nobel prize for "the invention
and development of the cyclotron,
and for the results thereby attained,
especially with regard to artificial
radioelements."
(the 37" cyclotron could accelerate
deuterons to 8 MeV)
Speed increase smaller if particles become relativistic:
special field configuration or synchro-cyclotron (uses particle
bunches, frequency reduced at end of acceleration cycle)

Luis Walter Alvarez
Nobel prize 1968, but not for his work on accelerators:
"for his decisive contributions to elementary particle physics,
in particular the discovery of a large number of resonance states,
made possible through his development of the technique of using
hydrogen bubble chamber and data analysis"

25
Generation of r.f. e.m waves with a klystron
* The electron gun 1 produces a flow of electrons.
* The bunching cavities 2 regulate the speed of the electrons so
that they arrive in bunches at the output cavity.
* The bunches of electrons excite microwaves in the output cavity 3
of the klystron.
* The microwaves flow into the waveguide 4, which transports
them to the accelerator.
* The electrons are absorbed in the beam stop 5.

Collider: two beams are collided to obtain a high Centre of Mass
(CM) energy.
Colliders are usually synchrotrons (exception: SLAC).
In a synchrotron particles and anti-particles can be accelerated
and stored in the same machine (e.g. LEP (e+e-), SppS and
Tevatron (proton - anti-proton). This is not possible for e.g. a
proton-proton collider or an electron-proton collider.

Charged particles inside accelerators and in external beamlines
need to be steered by magnetic fields. A requirement is that
small deviations from the design orbit should not grow without
limit. Proper choice of the steering and focusing fields makes this
possible.
Consider first a charged particle moving in a uniform field
and in a plane perpendicular to the field:
design orbit
displaced orbit
In the plane a deviation from the design
orbit does not grow beyond a certain
limit: it exhibits oscillatory behavior.
However, a deviation in the direction
perpendicular to the plane grows in
proportion to the number of revolutions
made and leads to loss of the particle
after some time.
33
To prevent instabilities a restoring force in the vertical direction is
required. Possible solution : "weak focusing" with a
"combined function magnet"

perpendicular to the plane now
depends on the position in the
design orbit plane: the period
of the oscillatory motion1) in this
plane around the design orbit
becomes larger than a single
revolution.

With van de Graaff accelerator: simple:
E = q V, so E = V eV
From Einstein’s Special Theory on Relativity:
E2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2
With:
 = v / c, and the Lorentz factor γ:
relativistic mass mr = γ m0
γ = 1 / sqrt(1- 2), and  = sqrt(γ2 -1) / γ
So: total energy E = m0 c2 sqrt(1+ 2 γ2) [= rest mass eq. + kinetic energy]
= γ m0 c 2 = mr c 2
42
Remember:
TOTAL energy E2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2
Note ‘restmass’ term and ‘kinetic’ term (squared!)
relativistic mass mr = γ m0
p = m v = γ m0 v (for high energy particles: p = γ m0 c)
γ = 1 / sqrt(1- 2)
For high-energy particles (E >> m0c2):
E2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2 = E2 = p2c2  E = pc  p = E/c
43
Examples: electron: rust mass m0 = 511 keV
With total energy 1 GeV: kinetic energy = 1 GeV
Momentum p: 1GeV/c
Other example: electron with [kinetic] energy of 1 MeV (~1/2 m0 c2)
Total energy ET = 1 MeV + 511 keV = 1511 keV
Momentum p follows from ET2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2
Gamma factor γ = ET / moc2
Speed follows from γ = 1 / sqrt(1- 2), and  = sqrt(γ2 -1) / γ
