 Particle accelerators in INDIA
Particle accelerators are machines that accelerate subatomic
particles to high speeds using electromagnetic fields. These
machines are used to study the fundamental nature of matter
and energy, and have applications in a range of fields, including
medicine and industry.

• Particle accelerators play a crucial role in scientific research.

• This presentation focuses on how particle accelerators in India
integrate with biology, chemistry, and computer science.
 Types Of Particle Accelerators
There are several types of particle accelerators

Linear Accelerator (LINAC)

Magnetic Resonance Accelerator (CYCLOTRON)
Circular Accelerator (SYNCHROTRONS)

Each type of accelerator has its own unique strengths and applications. For example, linear
accelerators are used in cancer treatment, while synchrotrons are used for materials science
research.

Examples of particle accelerators in India include the Linear Accelerator (LINAC) at Tata
Memorial Centre and the Indus Synchrotron at Raja
Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology (RRCAT).

Motion of electrons and protons in presence
of electric and magetic field
• The motion of protons and
electrons in the presence of
electric and magnetic fields is a
fundamental concept in
electromagnetism.
• Understanding this motion is
essential for various scientific and
technological applications.
SUB TOPIC
MOTION OF PROTONS
AND ELECTRONS
•In magnetic field
When a proton enters a magnetic
field, it experiences a perpendicular
force due to its positive charge and
velocity, whereas in case of electron
the direction is oppostite. This force
causes them to move in a circular or
helical path around the magnetic field
lines.

MOTION OF ELECTRON FIELD INTEGRATION with other
subjects.
In combined electric and magnetic fields,
electrons experience a force opposite to the
electric field and a curved or spiral path due
to the magnetic field, influencing their
trajectory and applications in technology.
MOTION OF PROTON
In combined electric and magnetic fields,
protons experience a force aligned with
the electric field and follow a curved path
due to the magnetic field, crucial for
particle accelerators and medical
imaging.
•BIOLOGY
Combined fields are utilized in medical
imaging techniques like Magnetic
