Developments of S-band and X-band Compact RF Linear Accelerators for Security and Medical Applications at KAERI | |
|
||
In 2013, KAERI successfully developed a dual energy (9/6 MeV) S-band electron linear accelerator for the container inspection system. In addition, in 2014, KAERI also developed a 6 MeV X-band linear accelerator for CyberKnife and dual head gantry projects. In this paper, we report our recent successful developments of compact S-band and X-band RF linear accelerators for medical and security applications at KAERI. | ||

The development of electron gun for a S-band Linear accelerator | |
|
||
Diode type electron gun is developed for a S-band linear accelerator which is used for X-ray inspection system. Thermal analysis of the electron gun has been carried out for the optimizing the design of cathode support and heat shield. The simulation of thermal expansion of the cathode support and heat shield structure is done for avoiding electrical breakdown. Performance of the gun assembly, designed and developed with thermal requirements, has been evaluated experimentally | ||
