10 MW, L-Band Klystron for Accelerators (Final Technical Report)
- Calabazas Creek Research Inc., San Mateo, CA (United States)
Calabazas Creek Research Inc. (CCR) completed Phase I the development of a 10 MW, 1.3 GHz, annular beam klystron (ABK) for driving advanced accelerators, such as the International Linear Collider (ILC). Through detailed simulations in Phase I, CCR produced a design that meets all of the requirements for ILC. The ABK uses an annular beam to minimize space charge depression and the impedance. This allows the relatively low voltage of 120 kV specified for the International Linear Collider (ILC). Like the sheet beam klystron, the ABK uses a thin beam located close to the drift tube walls; however, it operates with lower risk, single mode cavities. In addition, it is azimuthally symmetric, dramatically reducing design and fabrication costs. It provides the same operating characteristics as a multi-beam klystron, but is far simpler and will be easier and less expensive to fabricate.
