Inductive-adder Kicker Modulator for Darht-2
نویسنده
چکیده
An all solid-state kicker modulator for the Dual-Axis Radiographic Hydrodynamic Test facility (DARHT-2) has been designed and tested. This kicker modulator uses multiple solid-state modules stacked in an inductive-adder configuration where the energy is switched into each section of the adder by a parallel array of MOSFETs. The modulator features very fast rise and fall times, pulse width agility and a high pulse-repetition rate in burst mode. The modulator can drive a 50Ω cable with voltages up to 20 kV and can be easily configured for either positive or negative polarity. The presentation will include test data collected from both the ETA II accelerator kicker and resistive dummy loads.

Particle Simulations of DARHT-II Transport System
The DARHT-II beam line utilizes a fast stripline kicker to temporally chop a high current electron beam from a single induction LINAC and deliver multiple temporal electron beam pulses to an x-ray converter target. High beam quality needs to be maintained throughout the transport line from the end of the accelerator through the final focus lens to the x-ray converter target to produce a high qu...

These kickers will be used to make fast dipoles and quadrupoles which are driven by sharp risetime pulsers to provide precision beam manipulation for high current kA electron beams. This technology will be used on the 2 axis of the DARHT linac at LANL. It will be used to provide 4 micropulses of pulse width up to 120 nsec. selected from a 2 μsec., 2kA, 20MeV macropulse. The fast pulsers will ha...

متن کاملRECONSTRUCTIOti OF’ INITIAL BEAM CONDITIONS AT THE EXIT OF THE DARHT II ACCELERATOR*
We consider a technique to determine the initial beam conditions of the DARHT II accelerator by measuring the beam size under three different magnetic transport settings. This may be time gated to resolve the parameters as a function of time within the 2000 nsec pulse. This technique leads to three equations in three unknowns with solution giving the accelerator exit beam radius, tilt, and emit...
