L'invention concerne un accélérateur de particules à tension continue, destiné à accélérer une particule chargée entre une source et une cible, cet accélérateur comportant un premier agencement d'électrode et un deuxième agencement d'électrode, écarté du premier. Le premier agencement d'électrode et le deuxième agencement d'électrode sont disposés de manière que la particule parcoure le premier agencement d'électrode et le deuxième agencement d'électrode successivement dans le temps. Chacun des agencements d'électrode est réalisé sous la forme d'une cascade à haute tension.
