Abstract

A novel type of standing wave linear accelerator structure has been developed at Varian Associates, Inc. This accelerator is an interlaced combination of two side‐cavity‐coupled standing wave substructures. An S‐band prototype accelerator guide with two identical substructures and total accelerating length of 10 cm has been built and successfully tested with a 2‐MW magnetron. Significant improvement in maximum permissible accelerating gradient was achieved. Output electron beam energy of 4 MeV and corresponding accelerating gradient of 40 MeV/m were experimentally demonstrated. The stunt impedance of the structure corresponds to 83 MΩ/m.
