The world's most powerful particle accelerator has just begun to work. The so-called K 800 is located at the American University of Michigan.
The construction of this cyclotron began in 1.980 and its cost has been 10 million dollars. This new cyclotron is suitable for handling heavy particles.
It aims to accelerate heavy ions like uranium in K 800. In the last sessions an energy of 360 million electronics has been obtained, but the cyclotron is capable of obtaining an energy of 8 billion electronics. This energy level doubles the previous brands.
It is intended to use this cyclotron without rest 24 hours a day. In addition, 75% of the time will be used by US researchers and 25% by foreign researchers.
