Device for estimation of current and energy density distribution in the cross section of a pulsed submicrosecond electron beam

Abstract

Abstract. Development stages of sectioned calorimeter system combined with a detector of total electron beam current by Faraday cup for estimating charge and energy distribution of pulsed electron beam are presented. The device design was determined taking into account its use for estimating the parameters of electron beams generated by submicrosecond pulsed accelerators (up to 700 keV, 0.2–10 kA, up to 60 ns at FWHM, 0.05–10 J/cm2).
