Intense Pulsed Neutron Source (IPNS-I) Accelerator RF System

Digital RF Control System for the Pulsed Superconducting Linear Accelerator

The FLASH (Free Electron Laser in Hamburg) (Ackermann et al., 2007) is a user facility providing high brilliant laser light for experiments. It is also a unique facility for testing the superconducting accelerator technology for the European XFEL (Weise, 2004) and the International Linear Collider (Ross et al., 2011). The LLRF (low level RF) system is used to maintain the beam stabilities by st...

An Automatic Real Time Impedance Matching System for Use in an RF Electrostatics Accelerator Ion Source

Efficacy of the intense pulsed light source on unwanted hairs

Background: The need for a rapid, non-invasive method for unwanted hair removal has led to the development of various light sources for this purpose. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Intense Pulsed Light Source (IPLS) on unwanted hairs. Patients and Methods: In this open, uncontrolled clinical trial, 77 different anatomical areas in 34 referred patients to “Novin Didegan Clinic” in Tehran...

The Spallation Neutron Source (sns) Linac Rf System*

The SNS is a spallation neutron research facility being built at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee [1]. The Linac portion of the SNS (with the exception of the superconducting cavities) is the responsibility of the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL), and this responsibility includes the RF system for the entire linac. The linac accelerates an average beam current of 2 mA to an energ...

The Ipns Rcs Rf System Third Cavity Upgrade*

The IPNS RCS is a rapid cycling synchrotron used to accelerate protons from 50 MeV to 450 MeV, 30 times per second. Currently, two single-gap, ferrite-loaded coaxial cavities, located 180o apart, provide a total peak accelerating voltage of approximately 21 kV over the 2.2 MHz to 5.1 MHz revolution frequency band. An amplifier chain, which includes a 2 kW predriver, a 20 kW driver and a 100 kW ...
