Design Study on Standing-wave Linear Accelerator

چکیده
A compact standing-wave linac has been designed using S-band microwaves for medical and industrial applications. It uses a bi-periodic structure with constant impedance. It consists of a buncher section with three-cells and on-axis coupled cavities with nine-cells. The total length is 740.0 mm including the electron gun. Using SUPERFISH, HFSS and PARMELA codes, it is capable to deliver 4.5 MeV electron beams with pulsed microwaves of 4.8 MW at 2,856 MHz. In this paper, we present the detailed design studies on a compact S-band standing-wave linac.

Unified Formulation for Linear Accelerator Design*
Expressions for peak and average powers required to produce a given average gradient in an accelerator section are given. They are valid for both lossy and lossless (superconducting) sections, for both traveling wave and standing wave sections, and for pulsed or continuous wave rf input. The expressions are given in terms of structure parameters that are equally applicable to traveling wave or ...
متن کاملExperiments on Gradient Limits for Normal Conducting Accelerators
The accelerating gradient is one of the crucial parameters affecting the design, construction and cost of nextgeneration linear accelerators. For a specified final energy, the gradient sets the accelerator length, and for a given accelerating structure and pulse repetition rate, it determines power consumption. In this paper experimental results and problems related to breakdown damage, pulsed ...
متن کاملStatus of X-band Standing Wave Structure Studies at SLAC
The linacs proposed for the Next Linear Collider (NLC) and Japanese Linear Collider (JLC) would contain several thousand X-Band accelerator structures that would operate at a loaded gradient of 50 MV/m. An extensive experimental and theoretical program is underway at SLAC, FNAL and KEK to develop structures that reliably operate at this gradient. The development of standing wave structures is a...

We are investigating a standing wave accelerator structure that uses a rf feed to each individual cell. This approach minimizes rf power flow and electromagnetic energy absorbed by an rf breakdown. The objective of this work is a robust high-gradient (above 100 MV/m) X-band accelerator structure.

Accelerating gradient is one of the crucial parameters affecting design, construction and cost of next-generation linear accelerators. For a specified final energy, the gradient sets the accelerator length, and for a given accelerating structure and pulse repetition rate it determines power consumption. Accelerating gradients on the order of 100 MV/m have been reached in short ( 20 cm) standing...
