Abstract

A novel autoresonance acceleration scheme comprising a traveling electromagnetic wave and a magnetostatic field is discussed. A spatially tailored magnetostatic field keeps the electron in a constant phase and allows continuous acceleration. Numerical results are presented. Experimental results, showing acceleration from an initial value of 10 keV to energies of about 150 keV after 1.5 m by using a pulsed 50-kW peak power transmitter, are presented.
