  • High frequency compact low-energy linear accelerator design
    Patent number: 10051721
    Abstract: A compact radio-frequency quadrupole ‘RFQ’ accelerator for accelerating charged particles, the RFQ accelerator comprising: a bunching section configured to have a narrow radio-frequency ‘rf’ acceptance such that only a portion of a particle beam incident on the bunching section is captured, and wherein the bunching section bunches the portion of the particle beam; an accelerating section for accelerating the bunched portion of the particle beam to an output energy; and, a means for supplying radio-frequency power.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 15, 2014
    Date of Patent: August 14, 2018
    Assignee: CERN—EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH
    Inventors: Alessandra Lombardi, Maurizio Vretenar, Serge Mathot, Alexej Grudiev
