Optimization techniques were used to attain the given optical conditions and iteration procedures were adopted to compute intense pulsed beam for obtaining self-consistent solutions in this computer code. The calculations were carried out by using ACCT, TRACE-3D and TRANSPORT for different beam currents, respectively.

Nonlinear space-charge waves on an intense relativistic electronbeam

The propagation characteristics of the large-amplitude space-charge waves on a modulated intense relativistic electron beam are calculated. The beam is assumed to propagate inside a straight drift tube, and is guided by a strong axial magnetic field. Only the analytical and simulation results of this relatively simple system are given. It is shown that the slow space-charge waves may cease to propagate if the modulating voltage is sufficiently high, whereas the fast waves are relatively unaffected by the nonlinearity. The limiting electron velocity inferred from the analytical theory is in excellent agreement with particle simulation. The implications are discussed     

Intense electron beam propagation by charge neutralization from adielectric collimator

An intense beam is not propagated in vacuum because of its space charge. In this work, an intense electron beam of 250 keV, 6 kA, 80 ns is propagated after initial collimation inside a short length of dielectric tube and further confinement provided by ions attributed to beam irradiation. Such beams have important potential in particle beam and controlled fusion research. It is seen that electrons are slowed down to the ion velocity, while ions are collectively accelerated by the beam space-charge. Collimator geometry is varied for space-charge control. Elongation of the beam pulse width to 100-300 ns is observed depending on propagation distance. Explanations are presented through physical model and scaling laws     

The Electrostatic Trapping of an Intense Relativistic Electron Beam in a Magnetic Mirror

Observations of rapid axial oscillations of an intense relativistic electron beam in a magnetic mirror are reported. The mirror field primarily provides radial confinement of the relativistic electrons. The axial confinement was achieved by placing thin aluminized mylar foils at the conjugate mirror field maxima. The region between these foils was filled with a few Torr air to provide a beam induced plasma for charge and current neutralization. The regions outside these foils were maintained at ~10-4 Torr. One foil formed the anode of a space-charge limited relativistic electron diode which launched the beam into the mirror. When the beam passed through the second foil it was no longer charge neutralized. In a manner quite similar to the anode foil oscillations observed by others, a space-charge limited electrostatic well was established which stopped the electrons and re-accelerated them through the foil-thereby reflecting the beam. When the reflected electrons re-entered the diode, they were once again "electrostatically" reflected. This process continued until the oscillating beam was either lost through the "virtual cathodes" outside the foils, dissipated in the drift region or quenched in the diode plasma after gap closure.     

轴对称静电场的束流光学模拟与设计

为了对高压倍加器和静电加速器等低能加速器中一些具有特殊结构的轴对称静电元件进行模拟和设计,采用传输矩阵法编写了直流束的束流光学计算程序,并利用该程序对高频离子源预聚焦系统和移动式加速器中子源的束流光学系统进行了模拟和设计。程序将整个轴对称静电场区域看作厚透镜,并均分成若干个小区间,先利用其他电磁场软件计算区域内的轴上电势分布,然后根据该电势分布计算每个小区间内的束流传输情况得到束流的包络曲线。该程序可以用于计算非线性效应可忽略的复杂轴对称静电场中强流和弱流束的传输,且所需计算时间很短。     

Characteristics of a high frequency ion source used in a low-energy accelerator

This work presents the characteristics of a high frequency ion source operating on a low energy, 150 keV accelerator. The latter is to be used as a neutron generator and its design is based on a theoretical analysis which shows that if the axial potential in an electrostatic electrode system is made to increase with four thirds the power of axial distance, inward electric forces will compensate space charge forces tending to blow up the beam. This results in a simplified acceleration tube much shorter and of higher gradient than the conventional acceleration columns. The ion source itself is an ordinary type using axial extraction of the beam, and its main properties investigated are the beam current and beam quality (or emittance). Dependence of the two on different parameters is investigated in a series of tests.     

周期会切磁场聚焦强流相对论带状电子束的理论分析和粒子模拟

对低幅值、短周期、有偏置磁极的周期会切磁场中300 keV,3 kA带状电子束的传输进行了理论分析和粒子模拟。给出了将波导宽度考虑在内的轴向均匀带状电子束的空间电荷场和作用在有限厚度的带状电子束的短边和宽边上的聚焦力的表达式,并利用束匹配的方法得到了磁场的幅值和周期,以及电子束通道的宽度和高度等参数。最后根据理论计算的结果进行了3维粒子模拟验证,结果表明:束宽边上聚焦良好,而在短边上带状电子束的轴向有限长效应使得聚焦力与散焦力沿轴向不能完全匹配,在束包络上产生了Betatron振荡,但在300 mm的距离上传输效率仍能达到98%以上,说明有偏置磁极的周期会切磁场聚焦强流带状电子束在理论上是可行的。     

Field theory of a traveling wave tube amplifier with a tape helix

A self-consistent relativistic field theory for a helix traveling wave tube (TWT) is presented for a configuration in which a magnetized pencil beam propagates through a tape helix enclosed with a loss-free well. A linear analysis of the interaction is solved subject to the boundary conditions imposed by the beam, helix, and wall. The wave equation for the fields within the electron beam corresponds to the Appleton-Hartree magnetoionic wave modes that are of mixed electrostatic/electromagnetic polarization. Hence, the determinantal dispersion equation that is obtained implicitly includes beam space-charge effects without recourse to a heuristic model of the space-charge field. This dispersion equation includes azimuthal variations and all spatial harmonics of the tape helix. Solutions that correspond to both the extraordinary (X) and ordinary (O ) solutions for the Appleton-Hartree modes are found numerically

Traveling-wave-tube simulation: The IBC code

An interactive beam-circuit code (IBC) is presented, to run interactively on fast PCs or workstations, for purposes of first-cut design of traveling-wave tubes (TWTs) at small and large amplitudes. The new physics parts are the use of particle-in-cell methods to obtain the space-charge forces, and the following of the electron beam over the full length of the tube. The model is fully nonlinear and one-dimensional, with the transverse space-charge fields approximated by one mode. The slow-wave circuit is modeled by a transmission line. All variables are displayed continuously, such as the velocity displacement of all the particles (phase space), beam charge and current densities, space-charge field, circuit field, voltage and current, circuit power, and the location of the added loss. Some initial runs are presented
