RadiaBeam Technologies, in collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory, are developing low-beta S-band accelerating structures capable to operate at ~50 MV/m accelerating gradients. These structures are designed to provide very high energy gain both in proton and carbon ion linac in the velocity range above β=v/c=0.3. The structures have been optimized to operate below the known breakdown and structural limits supporting the required accelerating gradient with 500 ns flat-top RF pulses. The detailed RF design of the accelerating structures with β = 0.3 and 0.43 is presented in this paper.

  A new linear electron accelerator for industrial applications was developed by the joint team of CORAD and MEPhI. It is based on conventional biperiodical accelerating structure for energy range from 7.5 to 10 MeV and beam power up to 20 kW. The use of modern methods and codes for beam dynamics simulation, raised coupling coefficient and group velocity of SW biperiodic accelerating structure allowed to reach high pulse power utilization and obtain high efficiency. The first two accelerators with the new structure have been installed and tested.

  Electron linear accelerators with an energy of 10 MeV are widely used for industrial purposes. This article presents the electron dynamic calculations and the design of linac with a standing wave (SW) buncher based on the biperiodic accelerating structure and a constant impedance backward traveling wave (BTW) accelerating section after it. In such accelerator, all unused RF power coming out from BTW section is used in SW section to improve the linac efficiency. Thus no RF load is needed. Also, a beam is experiencing an RF focusing in the SW buncher. Solenoid focusing field influence on the beam dynamics in the TW section was studied.

  The standing wave accelerator with the variable energy from 6 to 11 MeV has been designed. Electron energy is controlled by the injected current. The buncher has been designed to provide capture above 70% for the all injected currents range. The possibility of using a permanent radially magnetized toroidal magnet for the beam focusing was studied.
