METHOD FOR GENERATION OF DECELERATION RADIATION WITH PULSE-BY-PULSE ENERGY SWITCHING AND RADIATION SOURCE FOR IMPLEMENTATION THEREOF Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC H05H9/00 

FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: invention is a method for deceleration radiation generation with pulse-by-pulse energy switching and a source for implementation thereof with independent regulation of the radiation dose for each type of energy. The source is based on an accelerating structure with a standing wave, supplied by multibeam klystron. Pulse-by-pulse energy switching of an accelerated electron beam energy between the two values is achieved by switching of the high voltage pulse amplitude, that supplies the klystron from pulse to pulse. At that, the input RF klystron power pulses for low and high energy have the same amplitude and are genrated at the same frequency which varies in accordance with variation of the resonance frequency of the accelerating structure. The required dose power is provided by switching from electron gun control electrode voltage pulse to pulse.

EFFECT: increased service life of the klystron, increased stability of the accelerated beam parameters for each energy type and reduced energy consumption of particle accelerator.
