60 KEV 30 KW ELECTRON BEAM FACILITY FOR ELECTRON BEAM TECHNOLOGY

At the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics, Novosibirsk, the 60 keV 30 kW electron beam facility for electron beam technology has been developed. The electron gun provides continuous or modulated beam within the current range from 1 mA up to 500 mA. The optical system allows both static and dynamic focusing of the electron beam within the 50÷500 mm range of distance from the gun outlet, the beam scanning and its parallel displacement from the optical axis. The electron gun facility is controlled by the computer via the CAN interface. This paper presents the general description of the facility, its block diagram and main parameters.
