	An injection system consisting of a pulsed sextupole magnet (PSM) is being considered for Sirius, the project of a new 3rd generation 3 GeV synchrotron source in development in Brazil. This novel injection scheme will be implemented and tested in the existing UVX ring. This will also serve as an opportunity to get acquainted with the new technology and become ready for Sirius. On this paper we report on the ongoing PSM study at LNLS. In particular, details of injection dynamics calculations, magnet and pulsed power supply designs are described, as well as machine preparations for experimental tests in the UVX storage ring.

THPO023	Ageing of Airix Accelerating Units	controls, vacuum, monitoring, high-voltage	3391
	A. Georges, H. Dzitko, B. Gouin, M. Mouillet CEA, Arpajon, France
	Airix is a linear accelerator producing a 60ns, 2kA, 19MeV electron beam. It has been operated in a single shot mode by the “Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives” (CEA) for flash X-ray radiography purposes for 10 years. Its modular architecture increases the beam energy by quarter of a megavolt step: each cell delivers a 75ns impulsion of 250kV amplitude. Our aim is to guarantee a minimum lifetime for the cells and their pulse driver. To achieve it, we are operating a test-bed at a moderately low repetition rate (a couple of pulses per minute) for tens of thousands of pulses. Afterwards, we will run a series of both non-destructive and destructive analysis to identify the most stressed parts, and, if necessary, the means of increasing the cell lifetime. This paper describes the test-bed: a pair of cells and its driver, and the first results of these ageing tests.
