Any size you wanna make it. The bigger it is the more energy you can impart to the particles being accelerated.

Its accelerating I got it right


Cyclotrons form synthetic elements by what element?

Cyclotrons can be used to create synthetic elements by bombarding a target element with high-energy particles such as protons or neutrons. This process can transmute the target element into a new, heavier element.

Is the cyclotron used to create super heavy elements?

No, cyclotrons are not typically used to create super heavy elements. Super heavy elements are usually synthesized using particle accelerators like linear accelerators or heavy-ion accelerators. Cyclotrons are more commonly used for producing radioisotopes for medical imaging and research purposes.


Why are there limits to the synthetic elements that cyclotron can produce?

Cyclotrons are limited in the synthesis of elements because they can only accelerate charged particles to a certain energy level, limiting the types of reactions that can occur to produce new elements. Additionally, the stability of the resulting synthetic elements is a key constraint, as many of them may be highly radioactive and decay quickly. These limitations make it difficult to produce heavier synthetic elements beyond a certain point using cyclotrons.


How many cyclotrons are there in the world?

There are about 150 to 200 cylotrons in the world. About 35 of these are operated by radiopharmaceutical companies and are used solely for the production of medical radioisotopes. Another 25 are used in part for radioisotope production. However, most of the above cyclotrons are not of sufficient power to produce large quantities of Iodine 123, which is the focus of Quasar Group's main initiative and to solve a severe shortage in the United States and to a lesser extent in Europe. The type of cyclotron that is needed for this project are 30 MeV (million electron volts) that can produce large quantities of Iodine 123 utilizing Xe 124 gas target systems. This method produces an extremely high purity product and is the most easily managed compared to lower energy production methods utilizing Te 123 solid targets.


Study of properties of matter?

Begins and ends with Engineering. This study of matter is enthusiastically pursued by Mechanical and Material engineers, also Chemical, Metallurgical, and, among others, those techs who run the cyclotrons..


How are cyclotrons used to created synthetic elements?

charged particles of a cyclotron are given one pulse of energy after another making them speed up to very high energies. the particles then collide and fuse with atomic nuclei to produce synthetic elements

Was japan working to develop the atomic bomb?

Yes Japan had an atomic bomb project, but they had made little progress. They could not get high quality high power vacuum tubes needed for cyclotrons, so they had done few experiments. Unlike Germany, Japan had not even begun work on reactors.
