Description

Based on the technology of the DG series electron accelerator, a 500 kV/150 mA electron accelerator was designed and manufactured at IMP (Institute of Modern Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences). The new structure of high voltage and shorter accelerating tube have been used in this accelerator for high current. The specific features of this accelerator are compact of structure and higher power conversion efficiency. It has already passed the running test of 500 kV/170 mA, and the parameter is better than the designed value. (authors)
