Pulsed power supplies for the Fermilab 1 TeV switchyard
An upgraded system of pulsed switching magnets has been implemented in the Fermilab Switchyard to accommodate proton energies up to 1 TeV. These devices are required for switching the ''slow'' and ''fast'' extracted beams into their respective beam lines. ''Slow'' beam passes undeflected through the magnet in the off condition. During a pulse ''slow'' is disabled and ''fast'', which is of about1 ms duration, is deflected. The requirement then is for a ''flat-top'' current pulse of minimum rise and fall time. The circuit chosen is of the resonant charge recovery type. Several different styles and combinations of magnets are employed according to beam line requirements and constraints. In all cases maximum voltage is limited to 600 volts and pulse width to 100 ms.
