Abstract :
This paper describes the design of a proof-of-concept experiment (POCE) currently being constructed at Pulse Sciences Incorporated (PSI). The POCE is designed to accelerate a 10 kA, 3.5 MeV electron beam to 9.5 MeV after four passes through two sets of 1.5 MeV induction modules (each module incorporating 5 cells). The issues related to beam instabilities and beam transport, as well as cavity and gap modeling for the acceleration module are presented.
