Gn. Kulipanov et al., MARS - a project of the diffraction-limited fourth generation X-ray sourcebased on supermicrotron, NUCL INST A, 467, 2001, pp. 16-20
The new approach for the fourth generation X-ray source-Multiturn Accelerat
or-Recuperator Source (MARS)-was proposed recently. The installation consis
ts of the radiofrequency (RF) multiturn accelerator (similar to the race-tr
ack microtron) and long undulator(s). After passing through the undulator(s
) the electron beam is decelerated in the same RF accelerating structure. S
uch energy recovery reduces dramatically the radiation hazard and decreases
the required RF power. In this paper we present a more detail explanation
of this scheme, and specify further the parameter limitations and requireme
nts for the accelerator. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved
