So, I have no education in this field.
I've really been into mutant breeding and crisper plasmid based genetic engineering.
I've read that heavy ions create a greater number of mutagens than electron magnetic radiation such as deep uvc.
lately particle accelerators have been on my mind.
I'm curious could I run fly back transformer through a ballast, then to an electron gun from a crt-tv ?
then pass said electrons through an accelerator tube powered by a microwave magnetron?
could I also fill said tube with oxygen and create an oxygen anion -2 electrons?
oxygen because of its 15.99 atomic weight making it create a heavy ion.
my idea would be to slam these anions into a pollen specimen and see if i can create a double stranded break.-- so is this ionizing radiation since it doesn't run off photons?
what kind of shielding would it need?
could you make a ionic compound barrier ?
my other thought in mutant breeding is much easier just subject the pollen to uvc (254nm) making pyrimidine dimers. but I am afraid it would be a waste of time, since polmerase might not correct the lesions in transcription or replication.
well educate me please.
