Abstract

There is a significant interest in developing high-average power electron sources, particularly those integrated with Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) accelerator systems. Even though there are examples of high-average-power electron sources, they are not compact, highly efficient, or available at a reasonable cost. Adapting the recent advances in SRF cavities, RF power sources, and innovative solutions for an SRF gun and cathode system, we have developed a design concept for a compact SRF high-average power electron linac. This design will produce electron beams with energies up to 10 MeV. In this paper, we present the design results of our cathode structure integrated with modified 9-cell accelerating structure.
