Induction linac energy regulation via injector current modulation
- General Atomics, San Diego, CA (USA)
- Lawrence Livermore National Lab., CA (USA)
A 16-MW, 30-MHz electron beam current modulator has been built and tested at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. The modulator utilizes the transconductance of an array of 32 planar triode tubes to shunt a voltage regulation cell which will be added to the electron beam injector of an induction linac. The modulator exerts analog control over the top 5% of the injector current pulse. It will operate on a 60-ns beam pulse up to a 0.1% duty cycle.
