The accelerator driven subcritical assembly facility is under development in the National Science Center Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology. The important component of the facility is an electron linac with energy of particles of 100-200 MeV and average beam current of 1 mA. In this paper we focus on the S-band electron linac design. The accelerator scheme includes the injector based on evanescence waves, rf chopper, five accelerating structures and energy compression system. The results of calculation of accelerating structure performances and linac systems are considered in the paper

The results of beam dynamic simulation in an S-band injector that can be used for creation of the powerful electron linac are presented in the report. The injector consists of a diode electron gun with beam current of up to 2 A at energy of electrons of 25 keV, the klystron type prebuncher and the three cavity buncher. In the buncher, due to the special choice of eigen frequencies of resonators, maximal amplitude of the field on the axis of resonators exponentially increase from the first (downstream of the beam) resonator to the last resonator. It allows effective bunching the intensive electron beam and accelerating it to relativistic velocities. For providing of low transversal beam emittance the injector is placed in the external magnetic field. The injector provides more than 1 A of beam current at particle energies of about 1 MeV. Attention is paid to research of transients and stability of injector work.
