Improvements to the Harwell Van de Graaff accelerator

Creators

Description

The Harwell Van de Graaff has been rebuilt with a new high voltage column, accelerator tube and laddertron charging system. The facility now provides analysed proton beams of up to 60 μA and terminal voltages of up to 4.6MV. Beam current, energy and position on target are stable for long periods of continuous operation. Measurements of beam brightness and energy spread are encouraging for microbeam applications. (author)
