HYPERFREQUENCY RESONANT SYSTEM FOR ACCELERATING A CHARGED PARTICLE BEAM AND A MICROTON EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM

摘要

AN HYPERFREQUENCY RESONANT SYSTEM FOR ACCELERATION A CHARGED PARTICLE BEAM AND A MICROTON EQUIPPED WITH SUCH A SYSTEM The present invention relates to an hyperfrequency resonant system designed to accelerate a beam of charged particles, and comprising at least a first resonant cavity (or a group of resonant cavities similar to this first cavity) tuned at a fundamental frequency F and excited by means of an external electro-magnetic energy source and a resonant element which is, for example, a second resonant cavity tuned at harmonic frequency 2F and excited by means of said charged particle beams. The invention is applicable, for example, to particle accelerators of the "microtron" kind.
