OUTCOME
By the end of this lesson you will be able to explain the main ideas behind a particle accelerator and be able to describe what each part of the accelerators does to produce a high speed particle
In a particle accelerator charge particle are accelerated with electric fields and controlled/directed by magnetic fields
LEARNING TASKS
Explain
1. What does the Earth's magnetic field do for us and how is this related to particle accelerators?
2. What is this force called and what does it do?
3. What are the main "basic ingredients" on an accelerator?
4. What are the types of accelerators? what are their common uses?
