ACCELERATEURS DE PARTICULES COMPRENANT DES MOTEURS ELECTROMECANIQUES ET PROCEDES DE FONCTIONNEMENT ET DE FABRICATION DE CEUX-CI.

摘要

A particle accelerator including an electrical field system and a magnetic field system that are configured to direct charged particles along a desired path within an acceleration chamber. The particle accelerator also includes a mechanical device that is located within the acceleration chamber. The mechanical device is configured to be selectively moved to different positions within the acceleration chamber. The particle accelerator also includes an electromechanical (EM) motor having a connector component and piezoelectric elements that are operatively coupled to the connector component. The connector component is operatively attached to the mechanical device. The EM motor drives the connector component when the piezoelectric elements are activated thereby moving the mechanical device.
