Oral presentation

This year PSI celebrated the 40 years anniversary of the Ring cyclotron. This is the main accelerator of the high intensity proton accelerator facility, where protons are accelerated up to 590 MeV. In several upgrade programs the beam current was increased from the initial design value of 100 µA up to 2.4 mA. The rf-system of this separated sector cyclotron consists of 4 copper cavities...

Oral presentation

High Power Solid State RF Amplifiers are being pushed in the market. With the latest generation of LDMOS transistors a high RF power per unit can be generated. Many of these RF modules combined in a single system is a serious competitor to the long established tube technology. Several solid state RF systems have already been realized and used very successfully for RF generation at particle...
