Période

C. 1947 +

Canada

THIS ELECTRON CYCLOTRON WAS FIRST OF ITS KIND ANYWHERE IN WORLD & WAS DESIGNED, MADE & OPERATED AT NRC, ONE OF CANADA'S FOREMOST RESEARCH ESTABLISHMENTS IN NUMBER OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGICAL AREAS. NRC SCIENTISTS H. LE CAINE, P.A. REDHEAD & W.J. HENDERSON WERE INVOLVED IN PROJECT.

Fonction

DEVICE USED IN LABORATORY CONSISTING OF PARTICLE ACCELERATOR IN WHICH CHARGED PARTICLES ARE ACCELERATED IN SPIRAL INSIDE 2 HOLLOW METAL ELECTRODES BY MEANS OF CONSTANT MAGNETIC FIELD.

Technique

NRC'S ELECTRON CYCLOTRON WAS DEVELOPED C. 1947 & WAS FIRST IN WORLD CONSTRUCTED ON PRINCIPLES SUGGESTED BY RUSSIAN SCIENTIST VEKSLER IN 1944. IT WAS SMALL & RELATIVELY INEXPENSIVE, OPERATING AT ENERGIES UP TO 5 MEV, & USING CONSTANT MAGNETIC FIELD & APPLIED RADIO-FREQUENCY. OVER FOLLOWING SEVERAL YEARS DESIGN CHANGES WERE MADE TO CONVERT CYCLOTRON FROM EXPERIMENTAL MODEL TO DEPENDABLE RESEARCH TOOL.
