Abstract

A continuous wave electron-beam accelerator that accelerates a continuous wave electron beam having a large average current includes an electron beam generator, an electron-beam accelerating unit using a radio-frequency electric field having a frequency of approximately 500 MHz to accelerate an continuous wave electron beam, and electron-beam bending units located across the electron-beam accelerating unit and that bend the continuous wave electron beam a number of times. Each electron-beam bending unit includes divided magnets having identical-polarity magnetic fields, and controls the continuous wave electron beam so that the beam passes through the electron-beam acceleration unit a number of times on almost the same path.
