First-beam acceleration with niobium-based superconducting linear accelerator at NSC
Description
The 15 UD Pelletron of Nuclear Science Centre is capable of accelerating ions having mass up to 40 amu above Coulomb barrier. To augment the beam energy above Coulomb barrier for mass up to 100 amu, a booster Superconducting Linear Accelerator (Linac) is being developed and currently undergoing tests for regular operation. The Linac will consist of one super buncher (SB) cryostat consisting of a single Quarter Wave Resonator (QWR) cavity, three Linac cryostats, each consisting of eight QWRs and a superconducting solenoid as focussing device and a rebuncher cryostat consisting of two QWRs. The energy of the heavy ions expected from the Linac would be double that currently obtained from the Pelletron
