14 results about "Acceleration voltage" patented technology

In accelerator physics, the term acceleration voltage means the effective voltage surpassed by a charged particle along a defined straight line. If not specified further, the term is likely to refer to the longitudinal effective acceleration voltage V∥. The acceleration voltage is an important quantity for the design of microwave cavities for particle accelerators. See also shunt impedance. For the special case of an electrostatic field that is surpassed by a particle, the acceleration voltage is directly given by integrating the electric field along its path.
