  abstract     = {{X-band low-energy electron linear accelerators are attractive to industrial and medical applications due to the compact size. In this work we present tests of an 8 MeV X-band accelerator for industrial use. It adopts the coaxial coupling standing wave structure working at 9300 MHz. The accelerator length is 50 cm including the cavity, thermal gun, and electron window. Dedicated bunching cells are designed to reduce the energy spread. In the high power tests, the accelerator was able to generate the electron beam with RMS energy spread less than 1% (beam energy: 8.1 MeV, peak current: 45 mA). Combining features of compact size and the low energy spread, this X-band accelerator design is valuable for various applications.}},
