Abstract
The design and principle of operation of ILU-series industrial electron accelerators produced by the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics are considered using the examples of the ILU-10 accelerator with an accelerated-electron energy of 5 MeV and a mean beam power as high as 50 kW and the ILU-14 accelerator with an electron energy of up to 10 MeV and a beam power as high as 100 kW. The mechanisms of interaction between the electron beam and microbiological samples, the peculiarities of the depth profile of the absorbed dose in a substance, and the design of the electron-beam converter into bremsstrahlung are described. By using this converter, it is possible to increase the mass thickness of treated products several times compared to the electron mode. The throughput of ILU accelerators during radiation sterilization and electron pasteurization of products is estimated.
期刊介绍:
Instruments and Experimental Techniques is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes reviews describing advanced methods for physical measurements and techniques and original articles that present techniques for physical measurements, principles of operation, design, methods of application, and analysis of the operation of physical instruments used in all fields of experimental physics and when conducting measurements using physical methods and instruments in astronomy, natural sciences, chemistry, biology, medicine, and ecology.
