A cyclotron is a type of particle accelerator in which charged particles accelerate outwards from the center along a spiral path. The particles are held to a spiral trajectory by a static magnetic field and accelerated by a rapidly varying (radio frequency) electric field. == History == The cyclotron was invented and patented, by Ernest Lawrence o...
Instrument for accelerating electrons or other charged particles by dragging them magnetically between two hollow semi-circular electrodes.
any of a class of devices that accelerates charged atomic or subatomic particles in a constant magnetic field. The first particle accelerator of ... [8 related articles]
A device for accelerating charged particles along a spiral path.
A type of accelerator in which charged particles such as protons or heavier ions were accelerated outwards in a spiral. A cyclotron has two large D-shaped dipole magnets designed to produce a semicircular region of uniform magnetic field, pointing uniformly downward. The two D's were placed back-t...
particle accelerator with a magnetic field constant in time in which the charged particles move along a spiral path, where the radius of the path increases with increasing particle energya positive-particle accelerator in which the particles travel in a succession of semi-circular orbits of increasing radii under the influence of a magnetic field which is constant in time and are accelerated at the beginning of each such orbit by traversing an electric field produced by a high-frequency generator
A device for accelerating charged particles along a spiral path.
<radiobiology> Particle accelerator in which a magnetic field causes particles to orbit in circles, and an oscillating electric field accelerates the particles. ... (09 Oct 1997) ... 
(si´klo-tron) an apparatus for accelerating charged particles (such as protons and ions) to high energies by a combination of a constant magnet and an oscillating electric field.
Type: Term Pronunciation: sī′klō-tron Definitions: 1. An accelerator that produces high-speed ions (protons and deuterons) under the influence of an alternating magnetic field, for bombardment and disruption of atomic nuclei. Used to produce clinically useful positron-emitting radionuclides.
A cyclotron is an apparatus for imparting energies in the order of millions of electron-volts to charged particles by causing them to follow a spiral path inside a pair of hollow semicircular electrodes between which an oscillating voltage is applied.
[n] - an accelerator that imparts energies of several million electron-volts to rapidly moving particles
cyclotron 1. An accelerator in which particles are propelled in spiral paths by the use of a constant magnetic field. 2. A circular particle accelerator in which charged subatomic particles generated at a central source are accelerated spirally outward in a plane perpendicular to a fixed magnetic field by an alternating electric field. A cyclotron...
