A site that explains the physics behind particle Accelerators?

Click For Summary
A user is seeking a resource that explains the physics of particle accelerators at a high school level, specifically looking for content that includes equations like the Lorentz force and oscillating fields. They have already explored the Department of Energy and CERN websites but found them lacking in the required detail. A suggestion is made to check the Wikipedia article on particle accelerators, which is noted for its comprehensive references and links for further reading. The user emphasizes the need to connect their high school knowledge of electromagnetic waves and the Lorentz force to their project on particle accelerators. Finding an appropriate resource is crucial for their individual work for a high school exam.

Please, can you give me a site where the physics of particle accelerators is explaimed with numbers and equations to high school Level? I found the site of the department of Energy and the cern but there are not equations like the lorentz force and the oscillating fields... I need something a little more specific, I need it for an individual work for the high school exam, I am making this work on partice accelerators and I want to link what I learned from high school oN electromagnetic waves and lorentz force to the particle accelerators

Please help me

Thanks

The Wikipedia article is pretty good, and has lots of References & Links at the end for more detailed reading:
