| The principle of the cyclotron fails as particles accelerate close to the speed of light. |
|
| Michigan State University is the site of a very powerful atom smasher, called a cyclotron. |
|
| Each half resembles a uppercase letter D, so the two parts of the cyclotron are known as dees. |
|
| The first students to work on the cyclotron in the lab setting modified the magnet to better focus the proton beam. |
|
| In a cyclotron particle accelerator, researchers fired an isotope of calcium at a target of americium. |
|
| Though you know what they say, that a cyclotron is just a linac coiled into a spiral. |
|
| The antiproton was produced when protons from a cyclotron were used to bombard a copper target. |
|
| The first cyclotron, built in 1931 in Berkeley, California, by Ernest Lawrence, had a circumference of 30cm. |
|
| So we establish a target, turn on the electricity to the cyclotron and isotopes are produced. |
|
| Cyclotron: A cyclotron is a particle accelerator with a circular acceleration track. |
|
| Lawrence used his cyclotron to accelerate deuterons that were then crashed into sodium, producing a therapeutically useful radioisotope of sodium. |
|
| The radioactive isotopes must be made in a cyclotron, and because of the short half-lives, the cyclotron must be located at the imaging facility site. |
|
| We recommend that the cyclotron option for direct production of Tc-99m, which has many attractive features, be explored further. |
|
| The first modern particle accelerator, Ernest Lawrence's cyclotron, was 10cm across and thus fitted comfortably on a benchtop. |
|
| There he met Ernest Lawrence, the inventor of the cyclotron, who gave him a leg up in his career. |
|
| The IHCP runs a cyclotron to stimulate collaborative research for the enhancement of patient access to nuclear medicine. |
|
| The first genuine transuranic element was discovered at Berkeley, where Edwin McMillan used Lawrence's cyclotron in 1939 to bombard uranium with slow neutrons. |
|
| They also improved the equipment used to detect these elements, and in 1939 scientists first used a cyclotron particle accelerator as a mass spectrometer. |
|
| According to Al Smith, much current research is focused on the use of lasers to accelerate protons, rather than using existing cyclotron and synchrotron sources. |
|
| In addition, the increase in requests for cyclotron licensing continued throughout the reporting period, and is anticipated to continue in the upcoming year. |
|
|
|
| We propose an espresso-maker cyclotron, something small that fits on your desk and gives single-patient doses of medical isotopes, and which could be put in every hospital in the world. |
|
| It is to manufacture technetium produced by cyclotron. |
|
| I am not sure what technology you are referring to, but I believe that cyclotron technology is probably what will cost you the least amount of money while giving you the best performance. |
|
| Three applications for new PET cyclotron facilities are in the process of regulatory assessment, and an equal number of sites are in the application preparation stage. |
|
| The TRIUMF facility in British Columbia is Canada's premier national laboratory for nuclear and particle physics research and is home to the world's largest cyclotron. |
|
| The Pelletron accelerator at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Tenn., produces 25 megavolts and will accelerate protons or heavy ions, which are then injected into an isochronous cyclotron for further acceleration. |
|
| At TRIUMF, the anticipated strong demand for beams from ISAC will tax the capabilities of the cyclotron in terms of the total circulating intensities and the life expectancy of its radiation sensitive components. |
|
| We also have in our facility a cyclotron that makes PET isotopes. |
|
| One way to produce radioisotopes is to send a powerful beam of protons accelerated by a cyclotron into a specific target where a nuclear reaction occurs. |
|
| This new cyclotron, designed for research and production of new radioisotopes for medical applications, has unique capabilities that place it at the leading edge of accelerator technology. |
|
| But the basic idea behind both that cyclotron and the LHC is the same. |
|
| Dr Seaborg created plutonium for the first time in 1940, using the cyclotron to shoot deuterium ions into uranium atoms so fast that their nuclei merged. |
|
| One such cyclotron is planned for Thunder Bay. |
|
| We're a really logical place for a new cyclotron. |
|
| The University of Ottawa Heart Institute is also working with the other cyclotron facilities across the country and with the nuclear medicine community to try to find solutions for the problem we now face. |
|
| For example, the relativistic cyclotron frequency of a cyclotron, gyrotron, or high voltage magnetron is given by. |
|
| He persuaded cyclotron inventor Ernest Lawrence to let him take back some discarded cyclotron parts that had become radioactive. |
|
| Lawrence mailed him a molybdenum foil that had been part of the deflector in the cyclotron. |
|
| Dr. Ernest O. Lawrence, the inventor of the cyclotron, revealed the plans for one of these machines recently at the Sheffield centennial at Yale. It will be called a bevatron. |
|
| To build his cyclotron, Chadwick brought in two young experts, Bernard Kinsey and Harold Walke, who had worked with Lawrence at the University of California. |
|
|
|
| The National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory is located at Michigan State University. |
