Description

A pulsed magnetic field device for controlling relativistic electron beam energy flux and uniformity is described. The device consists of magnetic field power supply, coils and drift chamber of electron beam. Pulsed magnetic field is produced by capacitors discharge through six triggered vacuum switches to coils. The total energy storage of capacitors is 180 kJ and charging voltage is 10 kV. When charging voltage is 7 kV, magnetic field is 1.81 T, with a risetime of 8.38 ms. Influence of target materials on distribution of the field is also discussed, and synchronizer between FLASH-II and the magnetic field is introduced. The magnetic field device has been applied to FLASH-II accelerator, and the reliability of the device has been proved by more than two hundreds of shots
