“…Thus one is delighted to find that the problem of a highpower mm-wave amplifier was solved about a decade ago. Research begun with the two-beam accelerator (TBA) concept (20) found application in plasma-heating, and eventually resulted in demonstration of GW power levels at frequencies up to 140 GHz (21). With such a source one could directly power a W-Band accelerator to gradients in excess of 1 GeV/m.…”

We recall the motivation for research in high-gradient acceleration and the problems posed by a compact collider. We summarize the phenomena known to appear in operation of a solid-state structure with large fields, and research relevant to the question of the ultimate gradient. We take note of new concepts, and examine one in detail, a miniature particle accelerator based on an active millimeter-wave circuit and parallel particle beams.

“…Costing studies of a 0.5 TeV class collider based on this TBA scheme show costs competitive with the cost of a conventional klystron-powered collider [52]. Future TBA concepts may employ a standing wave FEL interaction for RF extraction from the drive beam [53].…”

“…The physics and technology of free-electron lasers (FELs) are intimately related to the accelerator community because FELs are important applications of particle accelerators and have the potential to power high-gradient rf accelerators, such as in two-beam accelerators [2]- [4]. Under the auspices of this grant, several important aspects of the FEL has be investigated.…”

“…This also solved the problem of power transport through the induction cells. Further innovations were made when it was realized [4] that the FEL could couple to a series of short cavities, thus, essentially, making a standing wave FEL. This configuration is interesting not only in that it offers a realization of a method to extract and couple the rf power to the high gradient structure, but also in that it is new way to operate an FEL.…”
