Accelerator Study |
Type |
Experimental |
#students |
1 or 2 students |
Orientation |
Why is
the scientific problem of interest at all? It is
well understood that it is possible to accelerate ferromagnetic objects
utilising pulsed magnetic fields |
How |
|
What |
In this
study, students will produce a simple 1 / 2 stage accelerator to demonstrate
the principles used in such systems and to give an insight into the design of
particle accelerators utilised in such places as CERN. |
