Microtron Accelerators resonant magnetic field

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on deriving the resonant magnetic field (equation 8) and the accelerating voltage (equation 8a) for Microtron Accelerators by combining equations 5 and 7. The equations involve parameters such as energy change (ΔW), magnetic field (B), and time (τ). The user attempted to isolate τ from equations 5 and 7 but encountered difficulties, particularly in understanding how the voltage term in equation 8a is derived from the combination of these equations. A suggestion was made to divide equation 7 by equation 5 to express ΔW in terms of other variables.

Homework Statement



Somehow combining equations 5 and 7 yields the resonant magnetic field (eqn 8)
and accelerating voltage V (eqn 8a). How is this derived?

Homework Equations


eqn5 2\,{\frac {\pi \,\Delta W}{eB{C}^{2}}}=b\tau

eqn7 2\,{\frac {\pi \, \left( w_{{o}}+\Delta W \right) }{eB{c}^{2}}}=a\tau

eqn8 B=2\,{\frac {\pi \,m_{{o}}c}{e \left( a-b \right) \tau}}

eqn8a V={\frac {\Delta W}{e}}

The Attempt at a Solution



I tried solving eqns 5 and 7 for Tau and got nowhere. Also can't see how the voltage term in eqn 8a appears from combining eqn5 and eqn7.

Try dividing (7) by (5) and solving for ΔW in terms of Wo, a, and b. Then sub result for ΔW back into (5).

The middle expression in (8) appears to be off by a factor of c.
