Abstract :
A 12.5-m-long self-magnetically insulated transmission line (SMILE) that sums the voltages of eight, 2-MV pulse forming lines was installed in the RADLAC-II linear induction accelerator. The magnetic insulation criteria were calculated using parapotential flow theory and found to agree with MAGIC simulations. High-quality annular beams with beta perpendicular to >
