Particle Beam
A particle beam is a stream of charged particle, charged or neutral particles other than photons. In Particle accelerator, particle accelerators, these particles can move with a velocity close to the speed of light. There is a difference between the creation and control of charged particle beams and neutral particle beams, as only the first type can be manipulated to a sufficient extent by devices based on electromagnetism. The manipulation and diagnostics of charged particle beams at high kinetic energies using particle accelerators are main topics of accelerator physics. Sources Charged particles such as electrons, positrons, and protons may be separated from their common surroundings. This can be accomplished by processes such as thermionic emission or arc discharge. The following devices are commonly used as sources for particle beams: * Ion source * Cathode-ray tube, or more specifically in one of its parts called electron gun.
