Hi! Thanks for sharing that link - I'll be sure to look into it.

Hi! Sorry for my strange response times (timezones are a pain, and was asleep for a while) We have been reading and researching the dangers of cyclotrons for quite a while in our preliminary design stage, and so, we are taking some main dangers into account: 1) To prevent any harm being done...

Hi! Thanks for the welcome. We were planning to have an approximate diameter of 100-120mm with the circular plate around it approximately 50-70mm in height. (Apologies if this is hard to visualise, description is not my sort of thing) (Also, this is simply the vacuum chamber where the Dees will...

Hi all! So recently me and a group of friends have begun working towards the construction of a cyclotron - and I was wondering, if anybody here would have an idea what kind of materials would be able to be used for the vacuum chamber that aren't specific Aluminium Alloys such as 7075 or 6061...
