Particle accelerators measure properties of particles such as mass, charge, energy, and momentum. They can also be used to study fundamental forces, particle interactions, and the structure of matter at a subatomic level.
Drift tubes in particle accelerators help to guide and focus charged particles as they travel through the accelerator. They create an electric field that helps to keep the particles on track and at the desired energy level.
Scientists use particle accelerators to study quarks. By colliding particles at high speeds, these accelerators provide valuable information about the properties and behavior of quarks.
particle accelerators work by accelerating a charged particle in a magnetic field where the lines of magnetic flux are such that the particle is accelerated into a circular path. This is so that the force produced by such a motion and magnetic field is perpendicular to both the lines of magnetic flux and the velocity of the particle. The stronger the magnetic field and the faster the particle is moving, the more of a force is required (i.e stronger magnetic field) to keep the particle accelerating. Only a charged particle is affected by a magnetic field so only charged particles can be used inside a particle accelerators (i.e protons and electrons.) neutrons have a charge of zero and are not affected by magnetic fields.
No, because the orbital is really just an abraction - the electron isn't racing around the orbital like a racecar, so there isn't a speed. The orbital is a better measure of the electrons potential energy.
Modern technology in particle physics research is detecting quarks using particle accelerators and detectors. Accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider smash particles together at high speeds, creating conditions where quarks are briefly visible. Detectors then capture the particles produced in these collisions, allowing scientists to study the behavior of quarks and other subatomic particles.
Particle accelerators are also known as atom smashers
Small particle accelerators can sit on a desktop, large circular ones can be miles across

Sort of. Particle accelerators are anything that take particles (usually electrons or protons) and accelerate them to high speeds. Super colliders are really powerful particle accelerators along with a bunch of equipment to measure what happens when the particles collide. So when someone talks about a particle accelerator, they're usually talking about colliders. But there are lots of things that are particle accelerators that aren't colliders. The old CRT computer monitors (heavy ones that are about as deep as they are wide) accelerate electrons and shoot them into the glass plate in front to make light, so there's a particle accelerator inside.
Particle accelerators were first developed by John D. Cockcroft and Ernest T. S. Walton in 1932
