Homemade particle accelrator?

Question

I'd like to build an electron accelerator with a crt,vacuum,some magnets,maybe ln2 and what ever else is required.I'd like to have two CRT electron gun on each side(maybe a linear accelerator?)and collide them.I do understand at ~25keV you wont have anything crazy,but I'd like to do it for an a science project/Personal research.


Thanks.




P.S.

I do understand they're are dangers including x-ray radiation,high voltages,some glow in the dark humans etc(last one is a joke of course)

Answer 2

Good luck with that...are you attempting to conjure up some dark matter or look into the beginnings of our universe? Dude, I wish you the best of luck, but I don't think that are any home-makeable particle accelerators...ask MythBusters?
