Abstract :
The kicker units for injection and ejection at the new Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SSRL) injector synchrotron are built from two kicker modules driven by compact in-air delay line thyratron pulsers. The kickers have an aperture of 25 mm*60 mm. The injection kicker is 60 cm long (30 cm each module) and bends the 150-MeV electron beam by 42 mrad during injection. The extraction kicker module is 120 m long (60 cm each module) and bends the 3-GeV beam by 4 mrad for extraction. The pulsers produce current pulses on the order of 900A with a fall time of 200 ns for injection, a rise time of 260 ns for extraction, and a pulse length (rise plus flat top time) of 400 ns.<>
