PROGRESS IN RAISING THE ENERGY OF THE CAMD LINAC TO 300 MEV

摘要

Technical design details are presented of the proposed upgrade to 300 MeV of the linac at the Center for Advanced Microstructures & Devices (CAMD). The key parameters of the linac are listed and the benefits of 300 MeV injection to the CAMD synchrotron radiation light source are explained. The optimum placement of the 300MeV linac in the existing tunnel has been established and the upgrades and locations of ancillary sub-systems are being prepared. Simulations of the electron beam trajectory by a MATLAB based linear accelerator program are ongoing.
