Abstract :
The centerline design of a 3 ampere steady-state linear accelerator is outlined and theoretical performance given. The techniques used for extending the blowup threshold are given along with pertinent cold test data. The injection system design is discussed along with methods used for handling high currents while providing 40 - 60° bunches.
