The first particle accelerator was built more around the time of 1927 (resonance linear accelerator) about eight years after Rutherford first split the nucleus. But not too sure one that, I have other sources saying 1929, but definitely not as late as 1972. I do know that the first successful cyclotron (a type of circular particle accelerator, which was basically the ground work for the cynchrocyclotron spelling?) was built and tested in 1931 by Ernest Lawrence.

Are particle accelerators the same as super colliders?
Sort of. Particle accelerators are anything that take particles (usually electrons or protons) and accelerate them to high speeds. Super colliders are really powerful particle accelerators along with a bunch of equipment to measure what happens when the particles collide. So when someone talks about a particle accelerator, they're usually talking about colliders. But there are lots of things that are particle accelerators that aren't colliders. The old CRT computer monitors (heavy ones that are about as deep as they are wide) accelerate electrons and shoot them into the glass plate in front to make light, so there's a particle accelerator inside.
When was the first power plant built and where?
The first power plant was built in Bavarian in 1878
Where is India's first science city built?

Who built the first steam-powered train?
Trevithick, a british engineer built the first steam locomotive in 1804
When was the first nuclear plant built?
The first commercial nuclear power plant in the US was built in 1957 in Shippingport, Pennsylvania. The first commercial nuclear power plant in the world was built in 1956 in Calder Hill, UK.
Where was the first particle accelerator built?
The first and the most common one is a simple radio
What was the first synthetic element to be made by a particle accelerator?
The first synthetic element to be made by a particle accelerator was technetium
What was the first synthetic element to be made by colliding nuclei a particle accelerator?
curium
What does a particle accelerator do to atoms?
Nothing unless the atoms form a target. A PARTICLE accelerator accelerates PARTICLES not atoms.
What particle can not be accerlated by the electric or magnetic field in a particle accelerator?
The ones that have more mass than the accelerator can move.
What was the first synthetic element to be made to be made by colliding nuclei in a particle accelerator?
curium
What branch of physics uses particle accelerator?
Particle Physics
What is the name for a particle accelerator?
Cyclotron
Is a particle accelerator used to provide charged particles with sufficient kinetic energy to penetrate a nucleus?
yes it is a particle accelerator ;D
Where can someone find CERN particle accelerator?
CERN is the largest particle physics research laboratory in the world. People can arrange a visit to CERN. The particle accelerator is included in the itinerary.
Is it possible to get more speed then light to the particle with accelerator?
No. The more energy the accelerator can give the particle, the closer the particle can approach to the speed of light, but it can never reach exactly that speed.
