The Cockcroft–Walton generator, or multiplier, is an electric circuit that generates a high DC voltage from a low voltage AC or pulsing DC input. It was named after the British and Irish physicists John Douglas Cockcroft and Ernest Thomas Sinton Walton, who in 1932 used this circuit design to power their particle accelerator, performing the first artificial nuclear disintegration in history. They used this voltage multiplier cascade for most of their research, which in 1951 won them the Nobel Prize in Physics for "Transmutation of atomic nuclei by artificially accelerated atomic particles". Less well known is the fact that the circuit was discovered much earlier, in 1919, by Heinrich Greinacher, a Swiss physicist. For this reason, this doubler cascade is sometimes also referred to as the Greinacher multiplier. Cockcroft-Walton circuits are still used in particle accelerators.

CAUTION! Safety Warning.This project it generates approximately 6000 volts. As a result it may be DANGEROUS, even FATAL .
Do not try to replicate the experiment video unless you have a firm understanding of Electricity and Safety. You may try to replicate the experiments at your own risk.
