CyclotronThe first circular accelerator was the
cyclotron Developed by Lawrence in 1931 (for $25)
Grad student Livingston built it for his thesis About 4 inches in diameter

CyclotronPrinciple of operation
Particle acceleration is achieved using an RF field between “dees” with a constant magnetic field to guide the particles

CyclotronWhy don’t the particles hit the pole
pieces? The fringe field (gradient) provides vertical
and (less obviously) horizontal focusing
