An injector on the basis of a resonator structure with exponentially increasing amplitude of the electric field along an axis was developed at NSC KIPT. The injector is supplied with RF power through a rectangular-to-coaxial waveguide transition to provide axial symmetry of the accelerating field. The injector was designed to provide the output current up to 1 A at particle energy up to 1 MeV. Results of the injector test are presented in the work. Results obtained are compared with calculated ones.

The communication describes the method for optimizing the high-power Linac regime (electron energy, pulsed current and beam size, pulse repetition rate) and the composition of output devices to provide the maximum photonuclear yield of isotope product with the maintenance of thermal stability of structural elements. To exemplify, the results of accelerator KUT-30 (45 MeV, 10 kW) optimization at conditions of medical isotope Cu-67 production are reported. Simulation based on a modified PENELOPE/2006 code was employed to compute the Cu-67 generation rate in the Zn target, and also the absorbed radiation power in output device elements for different operating conditions of the accelerator with due regard for its loading characteristic. The simulation results were used to calculate the target and the converter (Ta) temperature at various thicknesses of the latter and at real cooling parameters. Conditions have been established for the maximum Cu-67 yield with keeping thermal stability of the target device.
