A new upgrade to the world’s most powerful X-ray free-electron laser has been ... The X-ray laser is the Linac (short for linear accelerator) Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at the SLAC National ...

How important to the proposal was the existing linear accelerator at Stanford ... So we had to build a new source of electrons. The electron gun was the key, but it took ten years or so to ...

The MR Linac machine combines two technologies — an MRI scanner and a linear accelerator — to precisely locate tumours, tailor the shape of X-ray beams in real time, and accurately deliver doses of ...

In layman’s terms it was a “cancer zapper”; a linear accelerator ... a high power electron beam without the x-ray target in place. Attempting to activate the accelerator in an invalid ...

Furthermore, a 500-MHz kicker cavity for the transverse deflection of the electrons was installed behind the electron linear accelerator (LINAC). The kicker cavity can change the direction of the ...

The concept and technology of accelerators developed so rapidly that by the end of the 1930s several types had been invented: the Van de Graaf generator, the linear accelerator (also known as the ...

Reader [Xellers] sent in his newest instructable: DIY Electron Accelerator: A Cathode Ray Tube in a Wine Bottle. While not exactly what you might think of a cathode ray tube, the basics are in place.

The Cambridge Electron Accelerator, a joint undertaking of MIT and Harvard, was begun in April 1956 and is now about half completed. A two-story administration and laboratory building has been in ...

Such electron beams can subsequently generate intense sub-femtosecond hard X-ray pulses in undulators, similar to those generated at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory's Linac Coherent Light ...
