When anions beam stream and cations beam stream are accelerated in vacuum, at high accelerating voltage, do they radiate photons ? if they do, what range of frequencies ? Note this question is not about positive-negative interaction.
Hello Gebreselema,
Technically, a proton is a cation, i.e., a positively charged ion (a hydrogen atom that has lost its electron), which is attracted to the negative electrode (cathode). So in one sense, you have already answered your own question.

Dear Thomas Cuff
Thank you.
No, you did not understand the question. This is not question about proton or cation definition. This is about their acceleration property in vacuum and free beam. Take note, acceleration, free beam, and in vacuum, what you are saying is very basic definition of positive vs negative.If you read my question,it says this is not about positive, negative property. This is about free particle acceleration and quantum properties. It is about photon emission property, not about likes repel, dislikes attract .
An ion is an atom or molecule that has a net electrical charge. Since the charge of the electron ... A cation is a positively charged ion, with fewer electrons than protons, while ... As reactive charged particles, they are also used in air purification by ... used for the detection of radiation such as alpha, beta, gamma and X-rays
Dear Gebreselema Hk ,
if you are thinking to synchtron radiation you can refer to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchrotron_radiation .
This link provides also the relation between the beam energy and the frequency of the photons generated that you were looking for.

Similar to synchroton, but this usually synchroton uses electron or proton,... this is used ion optics.
kkk, how did you know you arrived at such gross conclusion? You are teaching me about x-ray photons? and their means of production. Why are twisting my question to x-ray and gamma ray photons and their production? I am talking about ion optics if you know. I am not talking about x-ray and gamma ray photons or their production. My topic is about ion optics, if yo do not know that , please save your opinion.
