Tube amplifiers

Oral presentation 20' + 5'

The Proton Power Upgrade (PPU) project at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) will double the available H- beam power from 1.4 to 2.8 MW by increasing the beam energy from 1.0 to 1.3 GeV and the beam current from 26 to 38 mA. The increase in beam current and energy drove the design decisions made for both the Normal Conducting Linac (NCL) and Superconducting Linac (SCL) Radio-frequency Systems...

22. ESS Klystrons: Installation, test and early experience

Tube amplifiers

Oral presentation 20' + 5'

In order to reach 5 MW proton beam power, the ESS linac will be powered by 155 RF transmitters using different technologies. Most of these transmitters will use klystrons as amplifiers, and more precisely six 3 MW, 352 MHz klystrons in the normal conducting linac, and 120 1.5 MW, 704 MHz klystrons in the superconducting linac.
The talk will give an overview of the ESS klystron-based systems,...
