since you plan on building a cosmic ray detector, nuclear "real random" generators might be an interresting thing to look into. there were some intriguing experiments during the cold war era. in short, the randomness drifts by fractions of a percent, depending on influeces like placing a plant or a chicken near the decive (it was a basic mobile robot in a box, moving at random and dragging a pencil), or having somebody focus on making the light on a circle of lamps move one way or the other. arrays of such RNGs did pick up all kinds of things, often from unknown sources.

2092: Humanity wrapped entirety of Earth's circumference in wakefield accelerators and now is using it to launch ions at alien invaders with a force of atomic bomb.
I was first introduced to the idea of a wakefield accelerator through the webcomic SMBC Im glad to see that you went into more detail about it. Its a fascinating device.
I went to fermilab for Saturday Morning Physics for 9 weeks. One hour lecture two hour tour. (I live near fermi) I got to not only see the Tevatron accelerator, but also some new Wakefield accelerators being made. It was incredible. They were about ~80 feet long and a foot and a half in diameter.
I didn't know what caused the corona to be that hot, and everytime i hear about it it was "a mystery", when the answer was that simple, its just a natural particle accelerator that shoots ions into space forming the solar wind.Thank you.
They also have many downsides you should mention. And they can not replace "traditional" accelerators - that is simply impossible. Reason? Wakefield accelerators are far less efficient at accelerating heavier particles - the main focus of the LHC. They certainly will open up new possibilities, but not as a replacement or alternative, but an addition to current technology.
The LHC (Large Hadron Collider) Works with protons or lead atoms. The function is already here in the name (hadrons, particles held together by the strong interaction). Such an accelerator would be impractical if the interior were contaminated with particles, with which the hadrons should not collide. In the LHC, two particle beams are accelerated in opposite directions and collided at the detectors. Without a vacuum, the particles would not only collide with their counterpart but also with the gases contained in the accelerator.
Additionally, the energy distribution of a particle bunch accelerated by a wakefield accelerator is much broader and uglier than with traditional methods.
Not to be a critic but a railgun would use the magnetic field to apply a Lorentz force to accelerate the projecttile but in a particle accelerator the Lorentz from the magnetic field is used to bend the path of the charged particles .
Railguns use the Lorentz force produced by a projectile closing a circuit on a rail.The lorentz force is perpendicular to both the electric field of the system and the magnetic field,that's not how these particles are being accelerated.
I’m interested in that detector project. The simple ones I’ve seen are arrays of stacked Geiger tubes, which you can to some extent use to track the trajectory of the particles. While there isn’t much documentation on it, diy GM tubes or proportional counter tubes tubes couldn’t be too difficult, I wonder how accurately you could identify or filter particles with that kind of know-how? Trying to use a drum of water and cameras could also be pretty cost-effective.
First part of your second sentence I was asking what the f. By the end I was amazed I never thought of that or even come across that design. Thanks!!!! It’s always uber awesome to accidentally learn something so “eureka” My 6 year old niece is already coding and can hold a pretty intense conversation on similar subjects. Two weeks ago I brought a little “coil gun” kit I put together for her/us to build since she’s totally into that. And I’m too poor and jaded to buy boxes with little trashy projects inside. I picked that as a starting point to follow whatever path in building she liked. Half way through she came up with the idea of adding more of the same circuits to make “it go harder!” I love that little bird. Maybe in a few more weekends I’ll find some pmts for us to play with.
A laser-driven accelerator engraved in silicon, however, would be easier to scale up, and multiple components could potentially fit on the same chip. Byer worked with several other researchers, including Stanford University electrical engineer Jelena Vuckovic, to produce such a tool. “What you have to design is the structure that will guide light in the right way, so light will always provide a kick in the right direction-so particles are always getting accelerated,” Vuckovic says. To determine that structure, her student Neil Sapra used a computer to simulate how different patterns would interact with incoming electromagnetic waves. Once they had a design that accelerated the electrons as much as possible, and always did so in the right direction, the researchers etched this accelerator into a silicon wafer.
My wife and I have been watching your videos for a while and have started our own little projects. We absolutely love your videos but everybody seems to be wondering what it is that got she started doing all of this. At first I figured you were a biologist but your videos don't pertain just to biology every facet of science is on your page. It would be appreciated if you could time to give us an idea how all of this started for you it would really help out my crippling curiosity LOL. Anyway I digress and I would like to say I really appreciate your videos some of the greatest videos I've ever seen honestly. Keep up what you're doing how everybody absolutely loves it for sure.
If I get a good technical answer to this question, I’ll like the video. Why? Because I’m gonna put things in a new perspective in the process of asking: 1. what would happen if you took several laser “bullets” and angled them they created a vortex to pull in the last particle with phenomenal power transference? Have say six lasers. 1 one in the center and five around it in a pentagram shape (just a guess on the total number, no math involved). have the center laser fire in the first and third position, and the five laser setup fired second in turn. The five lasers would be pointed slightly down and just off center so that they don’t touch but impart a spin and transfer full speed on the third particle. Another way of thinking about it is that The first shot just creates the entry, second shot creates a vortex, third shot hits the center of the vortex and accepts energy from all six shots. But then again, 2. wouldn’t that just create a short lived miniature black hole?
The wake field is very interesting though. The energy of the light pulse is transferred to the plasma. Does it causes the light to redshift? Could we use multiples of pulses? From someone with EM physics degree: magnetohydrodynamics is sadly pseudoscience. As Alfven already stated. It is based on the idea that there is no electric field, but in reality there usually is. The electric field can even be very high in double layers, debunking some of the assumptions of the sun. There is a huge mix-up of fields. That is why the maths produce 10^6 order of errors. A clock that is standing still does a better job.
just a note: the loss of energy due to synchrotron radiation is greater in elementary particles such as electrons or muons, the synchrotron energy is proportional to the inverse of the particle mass, if we are using heavier or composite particles, protons or pb nucleus, we will ave very low energy loss. thats why the LHC uses protons, the downside of this is the collisions also generate a lot more undesirable stuff.
Your Voice is very similar to the voice of Trey the Explainer, an palaeontologic enthusiast (or student?), I like to hear. This and your video are indeed a good reason to subscribe to your channel!
Uhhh - that is fancy. Provided these can reach a short pulse length and brilliance, this opens the door for lab-size free electron x-ray lasers! PS for your detector project: I just met a team who are working on making some myon-detectors from coffe-cans, which they want to make available as a student project. They use SI-PMTs behind glass fibers inside the can to pick up the Tscherenkov light. The tricky part is the electronics behind the detectors. For now, they are using some "leftover" electronics from the ICECUBE project, since they belong to that experiment and have spares...
I definitely have no credibility to be posting ideas but what if we put a wake field accelerator in space and try to catch particles flying through space and speed them up even more. Just use it kinda like a speed boost for particles already flying through space? would love thoughts on this idea.
The wake field accelerator where the particle chases photons makes sense to me, but when you’re chasing another particle, I don’t see the point as the other particle would have had to be accelerated itself in the first place.
My understanding is, the size limit of Hadron accelerators like the LHC is not because of cyclotron radiation, but because the magnets are not strong enough to provide the centripetal force. Cyclotron radiation limits electron accelerators.
Proton cancer therapy will be revolutionized by Wakefield accelerators. Cyclotrons are used now. They are large, complicated and expensive so only limited cites are available . It's necessary to vary the energy to accommodate the volume of tumors due to the Bragg peak phenomenon. Varying the energy with a Wakefield is more straightforward.
It's funny, a few months ago I was at a synchrotron to run some EXAFS analysis with the synchrotron radiation, and I was wondering wether in a few decades, EXAFS, XANES and other techniques that require tunable X-ray sources could become as commonplace as NMR currently is. I guess wakefield accelerators could enable that.
LWFA accelerators need usually a Laser Pulse with more than 180 petajoules, completely propelling the trailing electron bunch to nearly a 40 GeV boost, PWFA is just a driving electron bunch which get its name because of its high speed, it can be by Particle Accelerators (not Colliders), at only 20 GeV.
I wonder if this is part of the planned research strategy for Fermilab after the LHC went online? They still have the next biggest accelerator, and it's not like it's been left alone to collect dust.
A wakefield generator could possibly drive plasma fusion in inertial confinement field, and do it in low energy, thus providing spacecraft some thrust.
Holy Molly, one of my long overdue project is a muon detector by means of coinciding detections from sufficiently quick ion chambers. (The ion chamber part works fine)
I am not sure if your description of how particle accelerators work, is correct. If you are accelerating a electron, you have to extend the distance between the rings because decreasing the wavelength of your ac is very hard to calculate and can easily mess up your whole acceleration if it’s just slightly wrong.
Hey I am currently a student in college majoring in biomedical sciences, I am wanting to be able to do all sorts of personal experiments like you also. But I wanted to ask how can you fuse or imbed two tissues organic structures together. For example how one artist did with a group of scientist, impeding spider silk in human grown skin. I’m just curious to know how they did this, if you do have any idea how they did this please make a video with whatever organic structure you’d like to grow together. Thank you!
I'm familiar with the thing you're talking about but haven't read about how they did it so I can't really say. I'm sure the paper is available through scihub though. Probably the best place to start. It'll be a little bit till I do more bio stuff, but I'll see. I've had a spider silk project on the back burner for years so maybe I'll pick it back up.
Gun in space? Just look under the seat of a Russian space capsule, there always a possibility of the recovery crew might consist of hungry Bears and wolves, if the capsule off course.
So, the Higg's was supposed to weight a certain amount or more, but they found something almost high enough! is this what we are calling the Higg's ? or do I got it all wrong?
The peek power and speed of things like TEA or N2 Lasers is rather good, would they work for something like a wake field if fired into metal vapor chamber? Timing should be possible by combining the particles with the pulse setting off the Laser in the first place. Curious if anyone knows if or whys this will or will not work.
I am kinda curious how the power input and output ratio would be on this for such an accelerator with just enough energy input to force two deuterium nuclei to fuse (or any other pair of fusion compatible isotopes) Maybe an we have potential for an extremely compact fusion reactor here?
I am guessing that Wakefield Accelerators, though they can reach high energies, won't be able to achieve the luminosity of a standard accelerator like the LHC?
It is not particles that are important but how they move. A field is nothing more than a volume of space with a collection of particals moving in a common direction. A wave is the behaviour of fields interacting.

Why don't they use negative charge when the electron exits the ring, to repel it for even more acceleration?

The peek power and speed of things like TEA or N2 Lasers is rather good, would they work for something like a wake field if fired into metal vapor chamber? Timing should be possible by combining the particles with the pulse setting off the Laser in the first place. Curious if anyone knows if or whys this will or will not work.
The "OMG Particle" is my favorite 🥰😄
I am kinda curious how the power input and output ratio would be on this for such an accelerator with just enough energy input to force two deuterium nuclei to fuse (or any other pair of fusion compatible isotopes)
Maybe an we have potential for an extremely compact fusion reactor here?
I always wondered if the electron also experience time dilation and contraction as it accelerate since it picks up mass with speed etc.
Are you making a cloud chamber for detecting cosmic rays ?
Next video: Close-to-lightspeed spacetravel using wakefield acceleration ;-)
I am guessing that Wakefield Accelerators, though they can reach high energies, won't be able to achieve the luminosity of a standard accelerator like the LHC?
OK what if we get a gravitational pole there the partical can revolve around making it already turn and would it still loss speed
can we build One on the ISS and capture cosmic waves at high energies as an experiment?
It is not particles that are important but how they move. A field is nothing more than a volume of space with a collection of particals moving in a common direction. A wave is the behaviour of fields interacting.
what happened to all the rest of your old videos?
Small error: 27 km in circumference, not diameter
What if you got one of these accelerators (80% transfer) and made it as large as the LHC. How much energy would the particles have then?
I already have a particle accelerator in my old office. It's an old Compaq monitor.
Would time lapse photography with x-ray cartridge illumination sheets work as a crude cosmic ray detector?
Nice video
2:40 but the lost energy didn’t depend by the angle? Eventually after one loop isn’t the lost energy the same regardless the radius?
Imagine what could be possible if we strap this onto the LHC... that would be amazing.
That's literally AWAKE
