|---|---|---|
| Application |
Bremsstrahlung x-rays Electron | |
| Test Object Size | Test area will accommodate nearly any size or configuration | |
| General Description |
The 3-stage S-band linear accelerator can produce stable and high-current pulses
of electrons for TREE testing. Vacuum chambers are available. Converters can be used to produce pulses of x-rays. A remotely operated sample changer is available for rapid characterization of a large number of parts. | |
