Minecraft tekkit problem?

I was playing tekkit and I built a atom smasher ( particle accelerator). I hooked it up to about 20 redstone cells but when i turned it on, the matter only went to a velocity of 4 then it kept on going back to zero. I looked at the energy and i had 1.0 teragite joules of energy. But the energy would drop down to less than a gigabite. I tried to reconnect it but that didn't work.

Added (1). p.s i put the accelerator in the right plce

Well I guess you shouldn't study string theory
