This article describes the principles of operation and the
parameters of the SINUS setups designed at the Institute of
High-Current Electronics, Siberian Division, Russian Academy
of Science, over the period from 1990 to 2002. A characteristic
feature of accelerators of the SINUS type is the use of coaxial
forming lines (in particular, with a spiral central conductor)
which are charged by a built-in Tesla transformer to produce
the accelerating high-voltage pulses. This ensures a reasonable
compactness and long lifetime of the setups.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
