This arrangement, though more complex, has the advantage of achieving higher accelerations with lower applied voltages : a typical tandem accelerator with an applied voltage of 750 kV can achieve ion energies of over 2 MeV.

He obtained $ 2.2 million in 1969 for new accelerators, with which he purchased a 26 MeV negative-ion cyclotron to inject into the EN tandem, which commenced operation in 1972, and a 14UD tandem accelerator that commenced operation in 1974.
