What are Accelerators? + Electrostatic Particle Accelerator

What are particle accelerators? Accelerators are to nuclear physics, what a microscope is to biology and a telescope is to astronomy. These are devices that help us study the properties and working of the nucleus of an atom. The also help in inducing nuclear reactions or breaking apart a nucleus into its constituent particles so that we can study the fundamental particles making up matter. Accelerators provide Kinetic energy by accelerating an incident particle which is then bombarded onto some target nucleus to induce some sort of a desirable nuclear experiment. Accelerators can be classified as : Electrostatic Accelerators, and Electromagnetic Accelerators. In this video, I discuss the basic construction and working of an Electrostatic accelerator. In my coming videos I will discuss in detail, many different Accelerators which are widely used. ▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱ Support💖https://www.patreon.com/dibyajyotidas Donate🤝🏻https://paypal.me/FortheLoveofPhysics Telegram - https://t.me/FortheLoveofPhysicsYT ▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱ Follow my other videos here... •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• NUCLEAR AND PARTICLE PHYSICS - Series : •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 1) What is Nuclear Physics? ► https://youtu.be/6joildn5lqY 2) Nuclear Size / Radius ► https://youtu.be/1keKrGoqUAg 3) Quantization of Angular Momentum ► https://youtu.be/QHYJ4VpqAvs 4) Nuclear Spin and Angular Momentum ► https://youtu.be/LPYPhyioDfs 5) Nuclear Magnetic Moment ► https://youtu.be/3QniicZuVnc 6) Binding Energy of Nucleus & BE Curve ► https://youtu.be/BYRz_9wvJzA 7) Parity of Wave function ► https://youtu.be/BSTRJjElDdI 8) Symmetric & Anti symmetric Wave func ► https://youtu.be/wvnWCY9TKgw 9) Liquid Drop Model of Nucleus ► https://youtu.be/4q1i7yTcQmA 10) Corrections to Liquid Drop Model ► https://youtu.be/GeLC1AUC0W8 11) NZ Graph (& Maximizing BE) ► https://youtu.be/MHYrv_1VJdI 12) Fermi Energy of Nucleus ► https://youtu.be/aUPLjIjgYGk 13) Fermi Gas Model of Nucleus ► https://youtu.be/emSekijh7XI 14) Shell Model of Nucleus ► https://youtu.be/Rd0CJje59bE 15) Nature of (Strong) Nuclear Force) ► https://youtu.be/43AyN24jZw8 16) Alpha, Beta & Gamma Decay ► https://youtu.be/eUEgpcQHzIA 17) Gamow's Theory of Alpha Decay ► https://youtu.be/suj5MTLGAUU 18) Gamow's Theory (DERIVATION) ► https://youtu.be/QwT4tbA8UvI 19) Q Value and KE of Alpha Decay ► https://youtu.be/w0eEGiOYvus 20) Beta Decay & Neutrino Hypothesis ► https://youtu.be/avKic7oiwvA 21) Radioactive Decay Law ► https://youtu.be/fOMvJj39eTU 22) Nuclear Cross Section ► https://youtu.be/R0tdsaFJ4vg 23) Interaction of Nuclear Radiation with Matter ► https://youtu.be/Ara0eTv02No 24) What is Cherenkov Radiaton? ► https://youtu.be/AkR2daFw45U 25) Nuclear Detectors ► https://youtu.be/avvXftiyBEs 26) Geiger Muller Counter ► https://youtu.be/jxY6RC52Cf0 27) Scintillation Detector ► https://youtu.be/rjuFrk0-AOw 28) Semiconductor Detectors ► https://youtu.be/c1boCCYs77Q 29) What are Accelerators? ► https://youtu.be/-KslGjXEtKk 30) Van de Graaff Generator ► https://youtu.be/Q9bijrQfS6E 31) Linear Accelerator ► https://youtu.be/C79838wtRZo 32) Cyclotron ► https://youtu.be/L5zhpLfnqGc 33) Synchrotron ► https://youtu.be/rOXfm6EezeA 34) Betatron ► https://youtu.be/rOXfm6EezeA 35) Fission & Fusion ► https://youtu.be/L7_oi9zChqE 36) Proton-Proton & CNO Cycle ► https://youtu.be/aqnCfDqQlzA 37) Meson Theory of Nuclear Forces ► https://youtu.be/Wvjci2gP7eg ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• NUCLEAR PHYSICS - PLAYLIST https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRN3HroZGu2n_j3Snd_fSYNLvCkao8HIx ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #NuclearPhysics
