Applied calculations of accelerator characteristics for sterilization installation with local radiation shielding

Abstract

Abstract The calculations of electron beam characteristics in the accelerator of sterilization installation with the local radiation shielding in relation to the use of a magnetron with a larger pulse power are made. It is shown that a simple method on the basis of “moving” of cathode- heating unit toward the anode plane of the injector may be used for increasing of current and power of accelerated beam.
