That's how it has to be. A closed trajectory might work in mathematics but not in reality. Components are never perfect, so particles will get some unaccounted deviation. With a closed trajectory after one turn they will always get the same deviation which accumulates, and they will get lost quickly. Even a closed trajectory after 2-5 turns should be avoided.Ruihu Zhu said:This shows the trajectory of this particle is not closed.I can't understand why this happens.
Accelerator physics is a field of science that studies the behavior and principles of particle accelerators, which are machines that accelerate charged particles to high speeds and energies for various scientific and practical applications.
Accelerator physics has a wide range of applications, including particle physics research, medical imaging and cancer treatment, industrial materials processing, and energy production.
Particle accelerators use electromagnetic fields to accelerate charged particles, such as protons or electrons, to high speeds. These particles are then directed and controlled using magnets and other devices, and can be made to collide with each other or with a target to produce various effects.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator, located at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Switzerland. It is used to study the fundamental building blocks of matter and the forces that govern their interactions.
Some of the challenges in accelerator physics research include designing and building increasingly powerful and complex machines, developing new technologies for controlling and manipulating particles, and understanding and mitigating potential hazards such as radiation and high-energy collisions.
