accelerator
A particle accelerator is a machine that uses electromagnetic fields to propel charged particles to very high speeds and energies, and to contain them in well-defined beams.Large accelerators are used for basic research in particle physics. The most powerful accelerator currently is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland, built by the European collaboration CERN. It is a collider accelerator, which can accelerate two beams of protons to an energy of 6.5 TeV and cause them to collide head-on, creating center-of-mass energies of 13 TeV. Other powerful accelerators are KEKB at KEK in Japan, RHIC at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and the Tevatron at Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois. Accelerators are also used as synchrotron light sources for the study of condensed matter physics. Smaller particle accelerators are used in a wide variety of applications, including particle therapy for oncological purposes, radioisotope production for medical diagnostics, ion implanters for manufacture of semiconductors, and accelerator mass spectrometers for measurements of rare isotopes such as radiocarbon. There are currently more than 30,000 accelerators in operation around the world.There are two basic classes of accelerators: electrostatic and electrodynamic (or electromagnetic) accelerators.
Electrostatic accelerators use static electric fields to accelerate particles. The most common types are the Cockcroft–Walton generator and the Van de Graaff generator. A small-scale example of this class is the cathode ray tube in an ordinary old television set. The achievable kinetic energy for particles in these devices is determined by the accelerating voltage, which is limited by electrical breakdown.
Electrodynamic or electromagnetic accelerators, on the other hand, use changing electromagnetic fields (either magnetic induction or oscillating radio frequency fields) to accelerate particles.
Since in these types the particles can pass through the same accelerating field multiple times, the output energy is not limited by the strength of the accelerating field. This class, which was first developed in the 1920s, is the basis for most modern large-scale accelerators.
Rolf Widerøe, Gustav Ising, Leó Szilárd, Max Steenbeck, and Ernest Lawrence are considered pioneers of this field, conceiving and building the first operational linear particle accelerator, the betatron, and the cyclotron.
Because colliders can give evidence of the structure of the subatomic world, accelerators were commonly referred to as atom smashers in the 20th century. Despite the fact that most accelerators (but not ion facilities) actually propel subatomic particles, the term persists in popular usage when referring to particle accelerators in general.
I am selling (1) 20-round box of Remington 55gr. 30-30 Accelerator Ammo. If you haven’t seen these before, they are a .22 caliber bullet wrapped with a sabot fitted into a 30-30 case. They are getting ~3400-4000 fps muzzle velocity depending on the gun.
I’m asking $60 for the box (lowest...
When you just have to reach out and touch something!
2 boxes of 20 rounds each of Remington 30-06 Accelerator cartridges, 55 gr PSP. NIB
These rounds are no longer in production. They consist of a sub-caliber 0.224-inch (5.7 mm) diameter bullet held in a .30-caliber 7-grain (0.45 g)...
I have assorted 30-06 ammo that I've accumulated over the years. I don't shoot that caliber anymore. See pics for more info on what I have.
Black tip armor piercing one box of 20 rounds $60
Other ammo pictured $1 a round, or cheaper if you buy all of it.
I'm also interested in trading ammo...
I knew I had some, but not this much.
I was doing an inventory and came across a shoe box of ammo. Among other things, were these:
I think they made these for longer than most think. If you google them you can find images of ammo boxes with recent Remington branding.
I recall buying these...
