Abstract
Installation of compressed geometry acceleration tubes and other associated modifications have increased the effective voltage capability of the Oak Ridge 25URC tandem accelerator by about 3 MV. Since mid-September 1988, the accelerator has been operated routinely at terminal potentials up to 24 MV and occasionally near 25 MV. In 3500 h of full-column operation, including 1100 h at potentials above 22 MV, no significant spark-induced damage was observed. Some considerations related to further improvements in voltage performance are discussed.
