Hello All,
I was doing some research on different particle accelerator designs when I came across this interesting patent here:
http://www.google.com/patents?id=FkYxAAAAEBAJ&dq=3935503
They claim in the patent that the device, using a rotating magnetic field, has the capability of pulling both positive ions and electrons around the toroid in the same direction.
But what I wanted to ask you guys is if the same concept mentioned in this patent can be used to accelerate free electrons in a conductive metal like copper? Or would this work only for a plasma?
Thanks,
Jason O
