Particle Acceleration in Spherical Wave Fields
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 September 2017
Extract
A magnet rotating in vacuo with its vector of angular velocity ω perpendicular to its vector of magnetic dipole moment μ is able to act as a particle accelerator. The dynamic features involved may be relevant for the understanding of rotating magnetized neutron stars as cosmic accelerators (Thielheim 1989) and may be useful for the designing of new mechanisms for accelerating devices.
