Hello!
I am interested in building a cyclotron. Since I doubt that I will be compotent enough to build a cyclotron right now, what are some tips that you can give me to get me started on the (long) process towards building a cyclotron. I understand the several dangers - I am interacting with high voltage electrical circuits and x-ray radiation.
I do not want to simply start building a cyclotron and expose myself to such dangers, so can you give me some projects to work on that may help me when I finally get started on the cyclotron. Some topics to read about would be helpful - I am only twelve, so I can safely say that I have a LOT of time.
I am hoping to start working on this project by the time that I am in my late-thirteens. I do have a decent knowledge on how cyclotrons work - the idea behind it is rather simple, but the actual building and experimentation is far more difficult. I don't want to sound ignorant or foolish, but if I do , I'm sorry.
Thank You,
