Cyclotrons can be used to create synthetic elements by bombarding a target element with high-energy particles such as protons or neutrons. This process can transmute the target element into a new, heavier element.
charged particles of a cyclotron are given one pulse of energy after another making them speed up to very high energies. the particles then collide and fuse with atomic nuclei to produce synthetic elements
No, cyclotrons are not typically used to create super heavy elements. Super heavy elements are usually synthesized using particle accelerators like linear accelerators or heavy-ion accelerators. Cyclotrons are more commonly used for producing radioisotopes for medical imaging and research purposes.

Yes, they are true chemical elements but man made.
