Description

A new electron accelerator is now being studied and designed for Flash Radiography Application. It consists of a pulsed injector (4 MeV-3.5 kA - 60 ns) and an Induction Accelerator increasing the energy of the electrons up to 20 MeV. The authors briefly describe the Injector built by PSI and similar to the DARHT injector at LANL. They present studies and experimental tests carried out in order to design and build new induction cells and high voltage generators suitable for this application. Information is given on the PIVAIR milestone planned for a beforehand validation of the whole AIRIX machine
