Energy amplification and beam bunching in a pulse line ion accelerator

In a first beam dynamics validation experiment for a new Pulse Line Ion Acceleration (PLIA) concept, the predicted energy amplification and beam bunching were experimentally observed. Beam energy modulation of -80 to +150  keV was measured using a PLIA input voltage waveform of -21 to +12  kV. Ion p...
