Abstract :
A growing number of applications of particle accelerators require combinations of beam current, beam energy, and beam quality which are not readily achieved with conventional types of particle accelerators. Induction linear accelerators promise to fill some of these needs. A general description is presented of linear induction accelerator principles, various types of linear induction accelerators and their status, and possible future developments.
