Particle accelerator to generate random numbers for cryptographic applications

A particle accelerator random number generator method comprising:

• determining a random number strength;
• initiating a particle accelerator;
• detecting a particle event;
• recording a binary event from said detected particle event;
• determining if sufficient binary events have been recorded for said determined random number strength;
• if not, return to said step of detecting a particle event;
• if yes, converting said random number binary string to a hexadecimal string;
• and
• passing a value back to an item that requested said random number strength.

A particle accelerator random number generator system comprising:

• a particle accelerator;
• a particle event detector;
• a processing application;
• determining a random number strength stored in said processing application;
• initiating said particle accelerator;
• detecting a particle event by said particle event detector;
• recording a binary event from said detected particle event;
• determining if sufficient binary events have been recorded for said determined random number strength;
• if not, return to said step of detecting a particle event;
• if yes, converting said random number binary string to a hexadecimal string;
• applying said hexadecimal string for an encryption key;
• and
• passing a value back to an item that requested said random number strength.
