Ni. Aizatskii et al., HIGH-CURRENT RESONANCE ELECTRON-ACCELERATOR FOR INVESTIGATION OF COLLECTIVE ACCELERATION, Plasma physics reports, 20(7), 1994, pp. 603-605
The design and the first-stage test results of the laser injector comp
lex (LIC) are described The LIC is intended for investigating intense
short-pulse electron beam formation processes and studying collective
acceleration methods. The device comprises a laser-controlled-emission
microwave gun and a slow-wave system in which particles are accelerat
ed by the reverse wave first spatial harmonic. The main parameters of
the beam project are the following: 17-20 MeV electron energy, 10(10)-
10(11) particles per cluster, 6 to 7 ns pulse length.
