To determine the maximum accelerating gradient and thus the length of a future multi-TeV electron-positron linear collider, one has to know the breakdown limit in any accelerating structure.A special accelerating structure has been designed for testing up to accelerating gradients of 300-350 MeV/m using the 45 MW, 34.3 GHz pulsed magnicon amplifier [1]. The 2π/3, 57 mm-length accelerating structure contains 19 cells and operates in standing wave (SW) mode in order to achieve maximum surface electric field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
