Using electric fields. But velocity is increased step by step. In case of linear accelerator successive alternating right polarity accelerates to a higher uniform speed and it travels through proportionate lengthy tunnels. In case of cyclotron both electric (alternating) and intense magnetic field are used to increase the speed step by step.

What is the name of the Particle accelerator complex located beneath the Franco-Swiss border?

It is called the CERN accelerator complex. The complex consists of the following Particle accelerators: Linear accelerator I & II, Proton Synchrotron Booster, Low energy ring, Proton Synchrotron, Super proton snchrotron, and the Large Hadron Collider (as of Oct 18, 2009.)


What particle can not be accerlated by the electric or magnetic field in a particle accelerator?

Neutrinos cannot be accelerated by electric or magnetic fields in a particle accelerator because they have no electric charge and very small magnetic moment. This means they are unaffected by these fields and pass through them without being deflected.


Can a particle accelerator give you superpowers?

No, a particle accelerator cannot give you superpowers.


The main purpose of a particle accelerator is to?

The main purpose of a particle accelerator is to accelerate charged particles to high speeds and energies for scientific research. These accelerated particles are then collided or used in experiments to study fundamental particles and their interactions, leading to discoveries about the nature of matter and the universe.


How do atoms pass their terminal velocity in a particle accelerator?

In a particle accelerator, atoms are stripped of their electrons to create positively charged ions. These ions are then accelerated using electric fields to high speeds. By adjusting the strength of the electric fields, the ions can be accelerated past their terminal velocity and reach the desired energy for collisions or experiments.

Is an alpha particle and a proton released from the centre of the cycltron and made to accelerated at the same cyclotron frequency?

the alpha particle will accelerate slower and follow a tighter/smaller spiral outward than the proton.

Why would a scientist choose a particle accelerator over a nuclear reactor?

A particle accelerator will provide a beam of charged particles, which are accelerated by a magnetic flux, a nuclear reactor will provide a flux of neutrons (which are uncharged). Depends what sort of experiment you are doing

What is a positively charged subatomic paricle?

A positively charged subatomic particle is a proton. Protons are found within the nucleus of an atom and carry a positive electrical charge.


Why would a linear accelerator have no effect on a neutron?

A linear accelerator works by having a magnet at the end of the accelerator. If the particle is neutral then it will not be attracted to the magnet and therefore nothing will happen, as in the case of a neutron.

What instrument do scientists use to smash together tiny bits of matter?

A machine that smashes atoms together in order to observe what the universe may have looked like seconds after the "Big Bang" is called a particle accelerator. who ever is asking this is wondering what its CALLED not what it does! btw: Particle accelerator.
