  • Abstract
    Recently, we have achieved reliable cw operation of the Fusion Materials Irradiation Test (FMIT) radiofrequency quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator. In addition to the operational experiences in achieving this status, some of the modifications of the vacuum system, cooling system, and rf structure are discussed. Preliminary beam-characterization results are presented.
