Two-beam electron accelerators suggested and designed at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (1,2) are mainly intended for research in high energy physics. This paper studies the {open_quote}{open_quote}two-beam concept{close_quote}{close_quote} in order to make high current ion accelerators. As is known, one basic setback hinders the current enhancement in existing linear accelerators. Indeed, if special measures are not taken the accelerating RF field is defocusing in the radial direction. In a two-beam ion accelerator it is possible for the driver electron beam to excite RF fields in an ion linear accelerator that are accelerating and focusing at the same time. A considerable gain may be obtained in the current of accelerated ions and in the acceleration rate. {copyright} 1995 {ital American Institute of Physics}.
