  • Abstract
    The beam-transport line for the high-power 2-MeV Fusion Materials Irradiation Test (FMIT) accelerator is one of the most heavily instrumented ever designed. A wide variety of diagnostics is required to accurately determine the characteristics of the beam that will ultimately be used. Because the machine is only 2 MeV, the packing factor in the high-energy beam transport (HEBT) is high, especially since full-scale FMIT-grade components are used where possible. The HEBT´s mechanical design aspects and its instrumentation are described.
