Abstract

A self focusing linear charged particle accelerating structure is provided which avoids the radial defocusing effect of the particle beam, more particularly at the outlet of a first accelerating cavity which this structure comprises. Said first accelerating cavity comprises an inlet face and an outlet face which are spaced apart by a distance formed by an accelerating length plus an additional length intended to delay the arrival of the particles at said outlet face.
