  • Abstract
    This paper describes transmitter systems upgrade plans for the Bates Linear Accelerator. There are six modulator systems. They are dual output S-band systems with a peak operating power of 4.5 MW and 100 KW average. They are floating-deck hard-tube modulators operating a parallel pair of Litton L-5097 switchtubes in series with a Varian VA-938 klystron
