ATRI: A Tesla-transformer-type electron-beam accelerator

  • 1. Istituto di Fisica, Universita di Lecce, Lecce, Italy

Description

An electron-beam transformer accelerator is described. Its high voltage terminal rises up to 1.2 MV with an input voltage of 18 kV. The maximum electron-beam current is 16 kA; the pulse length is about 20 nsec. Aluminized Mylar anodes and foil-less anodes are used. With foil-less anodes the repetition rate is at present 3 pulses/sec. Pulse shape details are discussed to give an understanding of the behavior of the machine and its output characteristics. An improvement program is also presented
