(the 37" cyclotron could accelerate deuterons to 8 MeV) Speed increase smaller if particles become relativistic: special field configuration or synchro-cyclotron (uses particle bunches, frequency reduced at end of acceleration cycle) http://www.lbl.gov/Science-Articles/Archive/early-years.html http://www.aip.org/history/lawrence/ 15 From: S.Y.

The copper sphere was used for low-loss temporary storage of the e.m. power in order to reduce the power load of the cavity 25 Generation of r.f. e.m waves with a klystron * The electron gun 1 produces a flow of electrons. * The bunching cavities 2 regulate the speed of the electrons so that they arrive in bunches at the output cavity. * The bunches of electrons excite microwaves in the output cavity 3 of the klystron. * The microwaves flow into the waveguide 4, which transports them to the accelerator. * The electrons are absorbed in the beam stop 5. from http://www2.slac.stanford.edu/vvc/accelerators/klystron.html 26 Synchrotron : circular accelerator with r.f. cavities for accelerating the particles and with separate magnets for keeping the particles on track. All large circular accelerators are of this type. Injection During acceleration the magnetic field needs to be "ramped up".

Slow extraction Fast extraction of part of beam At time of operation of LEP Fast extraction of remainder of beam SPS used as injector for LEP For LHC related studies 30 Collider: two beams are collided to obtain a high Centre of Mass (CM) energy. Colliders are usually synchrotrons (exception: SLAC). In a synchrotron particles and anti-particles can be accelerated and stored in the same machine (e.g. LEP (e+e-), SppS and Tevatron (proton - anti-proton). This is not possible for e.g. a proton-proton collider or an electron-proton collider. Important parameter for colliders : Luminosity L N = L s cross-section number of events /s Unit L: barn-1 s-1 or cm-2 s-1 31 CERN accelerator complex to Gran-Sasso (730 km) 32 Charged particles inside accelerators and in external beamlines need to be steered by magnetic fields. A requirement is that small deviations from the design orbit should not grow without limit. Proper choice of the steering and focusing fields makes this possible. Consider first a charged particle moving in a uniform field and in a plane perpendicular to the field: design orbit displaced orbit In the plane a deviation from the design orbit does not grow beyond a certain limit: it exhibits oscillatory behavior. However, a deviation in the direction perpendicular to the plane grows in proportion to the number of revolutions made and leads to loss of the particle after some time. 33 To prevent instabilities a restoring force in the vertical direction is required. Possible solution : "weak focusing" with a "combined function magnet" pole shoe design orbit plane (seen from the side) pole shoe field component causes downward force field component causes upward force Components of magnetic field parallel to the design orbit plane force particles not moving in the plane back to it, resulting in oscillatory motion1) perpendicular to plane. The field component perpendicular to the plane now depends on the position in the design orbit plane: the period of the oscillatory motion1) in this plane around the design orbit becomes larger than a single revolution. 1) "betatron oscillations" 34 Dipoles and quadrupoles in LEP Quadrupole Dipole 35 Large Hadron Collider LHC: proton-proton collider Interaction point Bunch size squeezed near interaction point • Crossing angle to avoid long range beam beam interaction • R ~4 km, E ~ 7 TeV (2x!)  B ~ 7 T! 36 37 Superconducting magnets: no pole shoes Current distributions 38 39 LHC dipoles 40 pp collisions 2) heavy collisions: A proton is a bag filled with quarks en gluons 41 With van de Graaff accelerator: simple: E = q V, so E = V eV From Einstein’s Special Theory on Relativity: E2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2 With:  = v / c, and the Lorentz factor γ: relativistic mass mr = γ m0 γ = 1 / sqrt(1- 2), and  = sqrt(γ2 -1) / γ So: total energy E = m0 c2 sqrt(1+ 2 γ2) [= rest mass eq. + kinetic energy] = γ m0 c 2 = mr c 2 42 Remember: TOTAL energy E2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2 Note ‘restmass’ term and ‘kinetic’ term (squared!) relativistic mass mr = γ m0 p = m v = γ m0 v (for high energy particles: p = γ m0 c) γ = 1 / sqrt(1- 2) For high-energy particles (E >> m0c2): E2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2 = E2 = p2c2  E = pc  p = E/c 43 Examples: electron: rust mass m0 = 511 keV With total energy 1 GeV: kinetic energy = 1 GeV Momentum p: 1GeV/c Other example: electron with [kinetic] energy of 1 MeV (~1/2 m0 c2) Total energy ET = 1 MeV + 511 keV = 1511 keV Momentum p follows from ET2 = mo2 c4 + p2c2 Gamma factor γ = ET / moc2 Speed follows from γ = 1 / sqrt(1- 2), and  = sqrt(γ2 -1) / γ 44
