An intense L-band electron linear accelerator is under construction at CESC (Cheorwon Electron-beam Service Center) for industrial applications. It is capable of producing 10-MeV electron beams with a 30-kW average beam power. For high-power capability, we adopted 1.3 GHz, and the RF source is a 25-MW pulsed klystron with a 60-kW average RF output power. A pre-buncher is used before the bunching section, which is built-in with the regular accelerating sections. The accelerating structure is a disk-loaded waveguide with a constant-impedance operated in the 2π/3-mode. It is to be operated under the fully beam-loaded condition for high average power with the 6-μs pulse length and the 350-Hz repetition rate. In this paper, we present details of the accelerator system and commissioning results. |
