an apparatus in which charged atomic and subatomic particles are accelerated by an alternating electric field while following an outward spiral or circular path in a magnetic field.
The working principle of a cyclotroninvolves the use of an electric field to accelerate charge particles across the gap between two D shaped magnetic field regions. ... An alternating voltage accelerates the charged particles each time they cross the Dees.
PRINCIPLE ➡️ The working principle of a cyclotron involves the use of an electric field to accelerate charge particles across the gap between two D shaped magnetic field regions. The magnetic field is perpendicular to the paths of the charged particles makes them follow circular paths within two Dees.
Suppose a positive ion,say a proton,enters the gap between the two dees and finds dee D1 to be negative.It gets accelerated towards dee D1.As it enters the dee D1,it does not experience any electric field due to shielding effect of the metallic dee. The perpendicular magnetic field throws it into a circular path.At the instant the proton comes out of dee D1,,it finds dee D1 positive and dee D2. It moves faster through D2 describing a larger semicircle than before. Thus if the frequency of the applied voltage is kept exactly the same as the frequency of revolution of the proton,then every time the proton reaches the gap between the two dees, the electric field is reversed and proton receives a push and finally it acquires very high energy. This is called the cyclotron’s resonance condition. The proton follows a spiral path. The accelerated proton is ejected through a window by a deflecting voltage and hits the target.
