Abstract

737,098. Particle accelerators. NATIONAL RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. Oct. 21, 1953 [Oct..21, 1952], No. 26459/52. Class 39 (1). A travelling wave linear particle accelerator comprises a slow wave structure disposed about a curvilinear axis, and a transverse magnetic field having a transverse gradient is applied throughout the operative length of the structure. The transverse gradient is such that the particles are constrained to travel in a focusing region of the electric accelerating field. The slow wave structure 5, which may be a waveguide, or as shown, a coaxial line having a helical inner conductor of progressively increasing pitch, is bent so that its axis forms a spiral. The magnet 6 is C-shaped in crosssection and extends continuously along the spiral line. The limbs of the magnet form the pole-pieces. The faces of these pole-pieces are shaped to set up the required field gradient. The magnet is excited by water-cooled conductors located within the recesses of the C- shaped magnet. The vacuum maintaining system includes a pump 19, a duct 20 lying below and parallel to a radius of the spiral line, and pipes 21 leading to the convolutions of the line. The particles to be accelerated are derived from a primary accelerator, e.g. a Van de Graeff machine, and are deflected by a magnet 16 into the input end of the spiral line.
