A cyclotron is a type of particle accelerator that is used to accelerate charged particles, such as electrons or ions, to high energies. It works on the principle of combining a magnetic field and an electric field to accelerate particles in a spiral trajectory. The basic components of a cyclotron include: 1. **Dees**: These are two hollow, semi-circular, metal electrodes placed in a vacuum chamber that creates an electric field. The name "dee" comes from their D-shape.
