Title: Collective acceleration of electrons and ions in a high current relativistic electron beam. Final report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/167182· OSTI ID:167182

The original purpose of this research was an investigation into the use of slow space charge waves on weakly relativistic electron beams for ion acceleration. The work had three main objectives namely, the development of a suitable ion injector, the growth and study of the properties of slow space charge waves on an electron beam, and a combination of the two components parts into a suitable proof of principle demonstration of the wave accelerator. This work focusses on the first two of these objectives.
