The fact that a changing magnetic flux produces an electric field is basic to the operation of
many high energy particle accelerators. Since the principle was first successfully applied to the
acceleration of electrons (or b particles) in a device called the betatron, this method of acceleration
is often given that name. The general idea involved is shown in figure.

An electromagnet is used to produce a changing flux through a circular loop defined by the doughnut
shaped vacuum chamber. We see that there will be an electric field E along the circular length of
df
the doughnut, i.e. circling the magnet poles, given by , 2 p a E = , where 'a' is the radius of
dt
the doughnut. Any charged particle inside the vacuum chamber will experience a force qE and
will accelerate. Ordinarily, the charged particle would shoot out of the vacuum chamber and
becomes lost.
However, if the magnetic field at the position of the doughnut is just proper to satisfy the relation,

m v2
Centripetal force = magnetic force or = qvB
a
then the charge will travel in a circle within the doughnut. By proper shaping of the magnet pole
pieces, this relation can be satisfied. As a result, the charge will move at high speed along the loop
within the doughnut. Each time it goes around the loop, it has, in effect, fallen through a potential
df
difference equal to the induced emf, namely e = . Its energy after 'n' trips around the loop will
