Accelerator Development in Support of the NRL (Naval Research Laboratory) Beam Dynamic Program.

Abstract

Electrical and mechanical designs, design packages, and supporting analyses are given and described in detail for: (1) new insulators and accelerating gaps for the NBS linear induction accelerator (LIA) to withstand voltages > or = 250 KV; (2) nine new LIA module and power supplies with specifications of (a) 500 KV, 0.5 micro sec, (b) 1 MV. 0.5 micro sec, and (c) 500 KV, 2 micro sec; (3) power supplies for the toroidal, vertical, capture, and image compensation field coils, for the modified betatron accelerator (MBA) at the conceptual design level; (4) the preliminary design package for the power supply of the toroidal field coil; and (5) the power transport system from the external electron beam accelerator to the internal betatron diode.
