Abstract :
In this paper, the energy and system scaling laws of the Racetrack Induction Accelerator (RIA) are determined and its operating principles are discussed. This device is a cyclic accelerator that is capable of multi-kiloamp operation. Long pulse induction linac technology is used to obtain short acceleration times. The RIA circulates a high current beam through a linear induction module. The voltage gain relation is V = VMTM/¿, where VM is the voltage gain per pass, TM is the module pulse duration and ¿ is the transit time of the beam around the accelerator.
