Particle Acceleration in Shocks

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1995
The mechanism of particle acceleration by shocks is reviewed, and the resulting modifications of the shock structure contrasted with those which occur in molecular shocks with magnetic precursors. The danger associated with the use of steady models is emphasised and the applicability of the theory to cosmic ray acceleration in supernova remnants ...

Particle Accelerators

1980
Publisher Summary A device that provides forces on charged particles by some combination of electric and magnetic fields and brings the ions to high speed and kinetic energy is called an accelerator. Many types have been developed for the study of nuclear reactions and basic nuclear structure, with an ever-increasing demand for higher particle energy.

Particles and Accelerators

Physics Bulletin, 1969
R. Gouiran London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson. 1967 Pp. 256. Price 14s. The aim of this monograph, as stated at the beginning of the introduction, is "to present, without mathematics, the main ideas of high energy physics". This aim has been well fulfilled.

Observation of gigawatt-class THz pulses from a compact laser-driven particle accelerator.

Physical Review Letters, 2013
We report the observation of subpicosecond terahertz (T-ray) pulses with energies ≥460 μJ from a laser-driven ion accelerator, thus rendering the peak power of the source higher even than that of state-of-the-art synchrotrons.

Particle acceleration on a chip

Physics Today, 2013
As relativistic electrons traverse a microscopic channel etched in silica, some of them meet strong, energy-increasing electric fields. As relativistic electrons traverse a microscopic channel etched in silica, some of them meet strong, energy-increasing electric fields.

Particle Acceleration at the Sun [PDF]

open access: possible, 2001
As an introduction to this Chapter we would like to give several relevant comments of Dennis (1996) (quotation): “With the dispelling of “The Solar Flare Myth”, there is a danger that the following new myth will take its place: “We don’t understand impulsive flares but who cares”. Well, Reames cares. He has gone on record, stating that “The physics of

Particle Acceleration by Pulsars

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1981
The evidence that pulsars accelerate relativistic particles is reviewed, with emphasis on the γ-ray observations. The current state of knowledge of acceleration in strong waves is summarized, with emphasis on the inability of consistent theories to accelerate very high energy particles without converting too much energy into high energy photons.

Particle Accelerators in Medicine

2009
This chapter serves as introduction to particle accelerators used in medicine. Many types of particle accelerator were built for nuclear and particle physics research and most of them have also found some use in medicine, mainly in treatment of cancer with ionizing radiation.
