Ive spent 40 years designing and building particle accelerators for medical applications. Love cats. Hate Tories. Liking the Labour government after 14 years of lies and chaos. Pro EU.
i dispair at the US health system and im terrified at what people want to do to us in the UK, my health costs are 3k a year at the moment. I live 11 miles from Chester in the UK

my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer 12 years ago here in the UK, her treament for 18 months was free on the NHS, some people are determinded that we be like the USA health system, i hope we never do.

i was outside the radiation blocks when it was turned on obvs. Inside with it on you would be taking a lethal dose pretty quick

thats me on the left, green shirt inside EMMA the accelerator
August 12, 2025 at 10:00 PM
id say around 20 meters for these systems, the energy is quite low without much beam control, nasty systems that generate lots of residual radiation, they have to have good up time

its a heated cathode electron source with accelration through high votage with magnet scanning to trace the tv screen, radio therapy for cancer is pretty much the same thing but a few meters bigger.
August 12, 2025 at 9:34 PM
dont bother, your cathode ray tube tv was a partcle accelerator
August 12, 2025 at 9:22 PM
you do at clatterbrige and every other radio souce for killing cancer
