Performance monitoring and analysis of injector microtron

  • 1. Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology, Indore (India)

Description

20 MeV classical microtron is the injector to booster synchrotron of electron storage rings Indus-l and Indus-2. It delivers a current of 25 mA in pulses of 1 μs duration at a pulse repetition rate of 1 Hz. The acceleration occurs in a type-II RF cavity energized by a 5 MW pulsed klystron at 2856 MHz in a magnetic field of 0.18T. A directly heated single crystal of LaB6 of diameter 3 mm is used as electron emitter. The 20 MeV, 25 mA, 1 μs beam-pulse extracted from the microtron, is transported to the synchrotron. The variation in the operational parameters and possible interpretation of variations are essential for performance improvement. (author)
