An example particle accelerator includes a coil to provide a magnetic field to a cavity； a particle source to provide a plasma column to the cavity； a voltage source to provide a radio frequency (RF) voltage to the cavity to accelerate particles from the plasma column, where the magnetic field causes particles accelerated from the plasma column to move orbitally within the cavity； an enclosure containing an extraction channel to receive the particles accelerated from the plasma column and to output the received particles from the cavity； and a structure arranged proximate to the extraction channel to change an energy level of the received particles.
