Development of the Electron Gun for the Jnc High Power Linac
نویسنده
چکیده
An electron gun for a high-power electron linac in the Japan nuclear cycle development institute (JNC) has been developed and tested. In this electron gun, two types of grid control systems (mesh grid type and double aperture grid type) were tested for their ability to deliver high average current beams. In this paper, we discuss the problems associated with each type of gun system.

The JAERI superconducting linac based FEL
The JAERI superconducting rf linac has been developed to produce a high-power infrared free-electron laser (FEL). So far, a stable kW-level laser output has been achieved with improvements of the electron gun, the optical resonator as well as the beam transport optics. For increasing FEL power, energy-recovery experiments are planned in the next phase of the FEL development. The lattice design ...
متن کاملHigh Average Current Electron Guns for High-Power FELs
High average power FELs require high average current electron injectors capable of generating high quality, short duration electron bunches with a repetition rate equal to the frequency of the rf linac. In this paper we propose, analyze and simulate an rf-gated, gridded thermionic electron gun for use in high average power FELs. Thermionic cathodes can provide the necessary high current, have l...
