Title :
The Marx Modulator Development Program for the International Linear Collider
Author_Institution :
Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Menlo Park, CA
Abstract :
The ILC Marx modulator development program at SLAC is working towards developing a full-scale ILC Marx ´reference design´ modulator prototype, with the goal of significantly reducing the size and cost of the ILC modulator, while improving overall modulator efficiency and availability. The ILC reference design prototype will provide a proof-of-concept model to industry in advance of phase II SBIR funding, and also allow operation of the new 10MW L-Band Klystron prototypes immediately upon their arrival at SLAC
