THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF A 29 Mev MICROTRON

Journal Article · · Proc. Phys. Soc. (London)
The design and construction of a microtron having a 20ton magnet with a pole diameter of 80 in. are described. Details are given of the major components; phase stability is considered, and the particle dynamics relevant to vertical focusing and to beam extraction are developed. This accelerator provides a mean extracted electron beam of about 10 6 amp at an energy of 29 Mev. The microtron is pulsed at 100 pulses/sec, and has an electron pulse duration of about 2 mu sec. By use of a quadrapole lens system the extracted beam can be focused to a spot about 2 mm in diameter, with a corresponding angular spread of less than 1 deg . (auth)
