Description
The AGS 200 MeV linac was converted to an H- accelerator during the summer of 1982 using a magnetron-type source in the column of the second pre-injector pit. Because of the re-entrant electrode design, a 20 keV transport line was required to carry the beam to the first electrode. Several changes were made to the source which enhanced its performance over previous designs. The same H- beam current is available at 2.75 times the duty factor with reduced deterioration of its output over several months of operation. The source, 750 keV transport, and linac modifications and performance are presented
