Abstract :
A two-stage scheme of ion collective acceleration is investigated on the basis of simultaneous space and time modulation of the REB. At the first stage the REB time modulation is realized via ions accelerated by a virtual cathode (VC) field. At the second stage, the REB modulated at a frequency of about 20MHz, is injected to the drift chamber placed in the space-periodic magnetic field, where space modulation of the beam takes place. In the drift. chamber, the ions from the VC are accelerated by a slow travelling wave of REB.
