TI - Efficient Pulsed Quadrupole J2 - Proc. of IPAC2015, Richmond, VA, USA, May 3-8, 2015 C1 - Richmond, VA, USA T2 - International Particle Accelerator Conference T3 - 6 LA - english AB - In order to raise the focusing gradient in case of bunched beam lines, an alternative, iron free, pulsed quadrupole was designed. The transfer channels between synchrotrons as well as the final focusing for the production of secondary beams are possible applications. The quadrupole is running in a pulsed mode, which means an immense saving of energy by avoiding standby operation. Still the high gradients demand high currents. Hence a circuit had to be developed which is able to recover a significant amount of the pulsing energy for following shots. The basic design of the electrical circuit of the pulsed quadrupole is introduced. Furthermore more energy efficient circuits are presented and the limits of adaptability are considered.
