The PLUS Accelerator
نویسنده
چکیده
Our plan is to demonstrate a workstation accelerator (called PLUS) that not only executes the current speech recognition systems in real time, but that will also support the increasing computational demands of speech recognition systems in the next several years. The accelerator will also be useful for other compute-bound applications. The accelerator will be replicated and made available to other sites.

متن کاملRecirculation of the Slac Beam
The intent of this proposal is to boost the energy of the SLAC beam into the 40 GeV range by recycling the electrons through the accelerator for a second pass. In order to use the normal klystron repetition rate (360 pps), the beam must be stored for the entire interpulse period (2.8 ms). Storage would be achieved in a 6.9 km-long path extending over the entire length of the accelerator housing...
متن کاملMedium-Term Stability of the Photon Beam Energy of An Elekta CompactTM Linear Accelerator Based on Daily Measurements of Beam Quality Factor
Introduction In this study, we aimed to assess the medium-term energy stability of a 6MV Elekta CompactTM linear accelerator. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first published article to evaluate this linear accelerator in terms of energy stability. As well as investigating the stability of the linear accelerator energy over a period of several weeks, the results will be useful for esti...
متن کاملThe Grating Accelerator
where ky > 0 and kz > 0. Show that for small ripples (a d), this leads to a reflected wave as if a = 0, plus two surface waves that are attenuated exponentially with z. What is the relation between the grating wavelength d and the optical wavelength λ such that the x component of the phase velocity of the surface waves is the speed of light, c? In this case, a charged particle moving with vx ≈ ...
