Let’s say you design your system to go after particles of 65Kev and were able to capture all the energy from them. Any particles of energy less than that would be decelerated, stopped and reversed by the induced magnetic field. Accelerating them back into the reaction chamber and taking some energy with them. Any particles faster than that will still have their residual velocity (the amount in excess of 65Kev ) when they reach the helium catchment container (Which thus may need cooling.)
Wont the speediest ones come out, first?
Let’s design the system to allow the particle velocities to stratify.
The effective coil length would then change through the duration of the exit beam.
