Title: Design and performance of the traveling-wave beam chopper for the SSRL injector

Abstract

A pulsed, split-parallel plate chopper has been designed built, and installed as part of the preinjector of the SSRL Injector. Its function is to allow the linear accelerator three consecutive S-band bunches from the long bunch train provided by a RF gun. A permanent magnet deflector (PMD) at the chopper entrance deflects the beam into an absorber when the chopper pulse is off. The beam is swept across a pair of slits at the beam output end when a 7 kV, 10-ns rise-time pulse passes in the opposite direction through the 75 {Omega} stripline formed by the deflecting plates. Bunches exiting the slits have their trajectories corrected by another PMD, and enter the linac. Beam tests demonstrate that the chopper functions as expected. 9 refs., 5 figs.
