  • Abstract
    The damping ring kickers for the SLAC Linear Collider (SLC) must provide 7-Mrad kicks to 1.2-GeV beams with 60-nsec rise and fall times and fit in a 50-cm length around a 21-mm-diameter ceramic beam pipe. This requires that they operate at up to 40 kV. The construction and operation of two types of quasi-coaxial ferrite magnet potted with RTV silicone rubber are discussed. Production yield has been improved by changes in RTV designing, transfer, and cure. Operation lifetime is dominated by voltage, radiation, and thermal cycling.<>
