Abstract

A 200 MeV RF linac was designed and built for Brookhaven National Laboratory. Factory tests have now been completed and it is in final assembly for use at Brookhaven. The authors give the overall requirements of the linac. The system consists of four 3 m sections of S-band accelerator waveguide powered by three 45 MW Thomson klystrons. The injector is comprised of a triode gun, prebuncher, and a four cavity buncher. The system provides over 1 amp of beam at 1 ns to 10 ns at 10 pps
