The SLAC Recirculating Linear Accelerator

On Upgrading the Slac Accelerator

The Slac Low Emittance Accelerator Test Facility

SLAC is proposing to build a new Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) capable of producing a 50 MeV electron beam with an extremely low geometric tran8ver8e emittance (1.5 x lo-lo rad.m) for the purpose of teeting new methods of acceleration. The low emittance will be achieved by a88ernbling a liiur accelerator using one standard SLAC three-meter r&ion and a 400 kV electron gun with a very rmall pho...

SLAC - Pub - 134 August 1965 DESIGN PROBLEMS IN THE BEAM SWITCHYARD OF THE STANFORD LINEAR ACCELERATOR

A discussion is presented on design problems encountered in the Beam Switchyard area of the two-mile electron accelerator 'due to the requirement of a maximum average beam power of 2 megawatts. A description is given of the various aspects of beam interception. The paper describes the general solution to these problems, _-particularly with respect to the construction of beam monitors rs and bea...

Orion: an Advanced Accelerator Facilty at Slac*

Extending the center-of-mass energy frontier for highenergy physics depends on the research and development that is conducted now in the area of advanced accelerator physics and technology. In this article, we present the design and beam dynamics simulations for the emittancecompensated, RF photoinjector of the ORION Facility.

SLAC -PUB-233 October 1966 THE STANFORD TWO-MILE LINEAR ACCELERATOR*

In April 1957, Stanfc:rd University proposed the construction of a two-mile long linear electron accelerator capable of accelerating electrons to energies of 10 to 20 CeV for use in physics research. Congressional authorization for this machine was given in September 1961, and construction of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) started in July 1962 on 480 acres of land near Stanford U...
