one of the limitations of cyclatron is neutral particles cannot be accelerated but to produce fast neutrons in cancer therapy,cyclatron is used how?
Answers
Answer:
A machine called a synchrotron or cyclotron speeds up protons. The high speed of the protons creates high energy. This energy makes the protons travel to the desired depth in the body. The protons then give the targeted radiation dose in the tumor.
A cyclotron accelerates charged particles by generating powerful magnetic fields. Since neutons are neutral they are unaffected.
One limitation is that it can not accelerate neutral particle. Second limitation is that lighter elementary particles like electrons or positrons can not be accelerated and requires important changes or modifications of the device.
