1. A non-scaling fixed field alternating-gradient electron accelerator, comprising
a) an induction core; and b) a plurality of substantially-identical cells, each cell comprising a focus (F) magnet (an F-magnet) configured to focus an electron beam horizontally and defocus said beam vertically and a defocus (D) magnet (D-magnet) configured to defocus said beam horizontally and focus said beam vertically, wherein said cells are arranged in a ring such that the F- and D-magnets alternate, and such that the electron beam circulates in said ring and is stable after being injected and until being extracted; wherein the cells are symmetrically arranged; and wherein the F-magnets and D-magnets have linear edges; and wherein the F-magnets and D-magnets are configured to generate a guide magnetic field which varies non-linearly with radius and to determine reference orbits which close geometrically, wherein: a beam energy is about 0.05 MeV at injection and about 3 MeV at extraction, an average radius is about 0.198 m. at injection and about 0.417 m at extraction, a peak field in the F-magnets is about 0.088 kG at injection and about 1.002 kG at extraction, a peak field in the D-magnets is about −0.177 kG at injection and about −0.491 kG at extraction, a magnet length for the F-magnets is about 0.0877 m at injection and about 0.1348 m at extraction, a magnet length for the D-magnets is about 0.0094 m. at injection and about 0.0976 at extraction, an aperture in the F-magnet is about 0.218 m, an aperture in the D-magnets is about 0.179 m, there are 8 cells, and a sextupole field is sufficient to contain tune variation and permit beam stability. |
