“…The electrons gain from 0.8 to 1. energies up to 10 MeV are produced by multiple passes through the same cavity. Different versions of these accelerators are designed with 6, 10 or 12 passes [8][9][10][11][12]. After each pass, the electron beam is deflected back into the cavity with dipole magnets which are placed outside of the cavity.…”

Two types of radio-frequency electron accelerators are described in this article. They operate in the frequency range of 100-200 MHz and are energized with triode or tetrode tubes instead of klystrons. They can provide more powerful electron beams than typical microwave linear accelerators. Keywords: ILU accelerators; Rhodotron accelerators; electron beam processing; X-ray processing. 213 Rev.
