Instructor's Guide
One electron volt (eV) is the energy gained by an
electron accelerated through an electric potential
of 1 volt.
An electron accelerated across a gap by means
of a 10,000 volt, or 10 kilovolt (kV), potential
difference is said to have gained 10 kilo electron
volts (10 keV) of energy after crossing the gap.
Other energy units commonly encountered at
accelerators are: MeV (1 million, or 106 electron
volts), GeV (1 billion, or 109 electron volts), and
TeV (1 trillion, or 1012 electron volts). These units
of energy are commonly used not only for
electrons, but for all charged particles.

perpendicular to a magnetic field; these are the
two basic types of accelerators.
1. Linear accelerators
Straight-line accelerators suffer from the
disadvantage that the finite length of flight
path limits the particle energies that can be
achieved.
Linear accelerators include:
