Jun 6, 2014 at 1:43 comment added Zhao I wanted to understand better the basic principles the cyclotron uses to accelerate a charged particle, reasons for the narrow gap between the two Dees and the usage of an alternating current instead of a direct current. I tried Wikipedia, but the article was rather technical for my level. Do tell me how can I improve the way I ask questions.

Jun 5, 2014 at 9:45 comment added John Rennie Your question is rather vague at the moment. Have you Googled for articles on cyclotrons? If so, are there specific issues you don't understand? For example, if you want to know how RF cavities accelerate particles see Accelerating electrons via microwaves
