The possibility of generation of high-energy electron beam at the SNS facility

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The linac of the SNS accelerator facility is considered to produce an electron beam with 300-400 MeV energy and relatively high current. However, the SNS linac is designed and optimized for acceleration of the H- beam, which creates problems when direct acceleration of electrons is considered. An alternative machine setup for electron acceleration and transport is discussed. Here, we present a study of the optimal electron beam parameters that can be achieved without any significant hardware changes in the SNS accelerator.
