Rutherford

• Lord Rutherford was the “god-father” of accelerators.

• In his inaugural presidential address to the Royal Society in London in 1928, he said “I have long hoped for a source of positive particles more energetic than those emitted from natural radioactive substances”.

• This was the start of a long quest for the production of high energy beams of particles in a very controlled way.

• Particle accelerators and detectors of today are among the most complicated and expensive scientific instruments ever built by mankind and they exploit every aspect of today’s cutting edge technologies.

• In many cases accelerator needs have been the driving force behind these new technologies.

Under normal

operation, because the

electrodes were very

smooth and almost

perfect spheres, Van de

Graaff generators did not

normally spark.

However, the installation

at Round Hill was in an

open-air hanger,

frequented by pigeons,

and here we see the

effect of pigeons

antiproton storage ring: ICE (the Initial Cooling Experiment). The ring verified the stochastic

cooling method, and allowed CERN to discover the W and Z.

Particle Physics as Drivers of Innovation

• Requirements of accelerators and detectors exceed the possibilities of many technologies: drives innovation

• Initially accelerators were built for particle research

• For particle research the maximum energy was the goal

• Along the way to higher energies many other applications;

– 1st commercial accelerator was the Cathode Ray Tube (Television)

– Carbon dating (accelerator mass spectrometry)

– National security (airports, drugs, illegal immigrants...)

– Medical applications (radio-therapy, hadron therapy, PET scans (detectors)

– Production of radio-active isotopes

– Synchrotron light sources, Free Electron Lasers (linear accelerator)

“In the 70s, as more applied researchers clamoured for time at these synchrotron radiation sources, a new

generation of purpose-built machines appeared. As well as basic research, synchrotron radiation studies went on to be used in the chemical, materials, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. A new research community had come of age. Synchrotron radiation is now a

flourishing branch of science, with dedicated major facilities all over the world.” 46

1. Accelerators have been continuously developed duringthe last century

2. Along the way many applications became apparent3. The most obvious: medicine and light sources4. Accelerator science is a multi-discipline activity needing

nearly all branches of engineering and technology5. There is presently a world shortage of accelerator

engineers6. Specialised training in accelerator science is a necessity

Higgs’ Boson• On 4th July 2012 the 2 LHC experiments ATLAS and

CMS presented evidence for the discovery of a Higgs’ boson.

• This discovery is the first major result coming fromthe LHC. There will be many more to come.

• Science is «cool» again with young people

• We (Irish) have a long history in science and play an important role in global science projects .

Antimatter application: Positron Emission Tomography

18F →18O + e+ + neutrino

e+ + e- → 2 photons

To produce the isotope fluorine-18, for example, you bombard a water target enriched with the oxygen-18 isotope with particles at an energy of about 10 to 15 MeV. The resulting fluorine-18 isotope is chemically separated and combined with a sugary glucose compound that is ready for delivery to the hospital or clinic. The process takes as little as a few minutes.With a 110-minute half-life, 18F has wide uses in diagnostic imaging. Administered intravenously, the compound collects in areas of high metabolic activity, such as cancerous tumors. Then a positron emission tomography (PET) scan of the emitted gamma rays provides detailed three-dimensional images of the cancer.

By accelerating these

particles to high energies

and colliding we re-create in

a small controlled way the

conditions which existed

just after the creation of the

universe.

The higher the particle

energy, the closer we get to

the instant of the Big Bang
