<p>An acceleration device for charged particles has an acceleration cavity (1) through which passes a beam (6) of the particles (9). High frequency power from a suitable source (4) is transmitted to the cavity (1) via a suitable transmission means (antenna) (31) to transmit the energy to the particles (9) and so accelerate them. The transmission means (31) is controlled by a suitable control (7) to control the coupling constant of the transmission means (31) when power is applied. Also, the device may have a looped conductor (51) in the cavity (11) controlled by the control to couple to the field in the cavity (11) and to extract power from the field, thereby to control the de-tuning of the applied power relative to the power transmitted to the particles (9). By controlling the coupling constant and/or the de-tuning, power may be transmitted efficiently to the beam (6) of particles (9).</p> |
