In 1929 Ernest Lawrence, born #OTD, developed an apparatus that used electrical and magnetic fields to accelerate protons to high velocities in a spiral-shaped path before they collided with a target. This new instrument became known as a cyclotron.

The last day in Japan was a visit to a Proton Therapy Centre in Tsukuba. Delegates had the opportunity to learn about patient flow in a large hospital. There was also a chance to view treatment rooms and see a rotating gantry in action. @ANSTO @AINSE_Ltd #ParticleTherapyTour2018
