Three fast Pulsed kicker/bumper magnets are required in the positron accumulator ring (PAR) for the purpose of beam injection and/or extraction at 450 MeV. According to the Conceptual Design Report (CDR), these three magnets have, identical specifications and are expected to produce identical magnetic fields. Therefore, they will have the same design. Each kicker/bumper magnet is required to generate a magnetic field of 0.06 T with a rise time of 65 ns, a flat top of 80 ns and a fall time of 90 ns, respectively. A fast pulsed magnet system normally consists of a high voltage dc power supply, charging/discharging switches which are tetrodes and thyratrons in most cases, a pulse forming network (PFN), a magnet assembly consisting of a ferrite magnet, a matching capacitor or capacitors and a load (termination) resistor. The primary objective of this study is the design of the pulse forming network and magnet assembly.
