Abstract

We have studied a compact heavy-ion linac for atomic physics and medical use. The design of the linac was based on using alternating-phase-focus (APF) and interdigital-H (IH) structures which give sufficient electric power efficiency. Thereby, it will be possible to design a small and high efficiency linac. The APF-IH linac was designed to accelerate ions from C 2+ to U 40+, from 30 to 300 keV/u and an operating frequency of 100 MHz. We made a half-scale cold model of this linac using orbit calculation and measured its RF characteristics. Then, we designed a APF-IH type linac using the results of the measurement.
