  • 1. Department of Atomic Energy, Centre for Advanced Technology, Indore (India)

Description

A linear accelerator based electron beam radiation processing facility for agricultural and medical products is being established at CAT, Indore. Electron beam from LINAC will be used to irradiate the different food products. For such purposes, a transfer-line consisting of focusing quadrupoles, steering, scanning and normalizing magnets were designed. Design aspects of these magnets are discussed in this paper. (author)
