A cyclotron is a machine designed to accelerate clusters of charged particles by using a high frequency alternating voltage and a perpendicular magnetic field to spiral the beam out and eventually deflect it once the beam's radius equals its container's. At this point the particles' speed is generally very high, approaching the speed of light. The cyclotron was invented by Ernest Lawrence in 1929, who used it in experiments that required particles with energy of up to 1 MeV. ...
