Cyclotron Basics for a Proton

The kinetic energy K of a proton in a cyclotron is given by:

K=(q^2 * B^2 * R^2)/(2m)

where:

  • q = charge of the proton (1.602×10−19 coulombs)
  • B = magnetic field strength (teslas, 10 is a lot, 20 is a lot lot)
  • r = radius of the cyclotron (meters)
  • m = rest mass of the proton (1.673×10−27 kilograms)
