Abstract :
High current relativistic electron beams can be injected into magnetic traps for plasma heating and containment. A two meter beam guidance system for injection and merging of two beams from synchronously fired accelerators will be discussed. The beams are injected into a magnetic mirror configuration with a mirror ratio of three.
