| Abstract |
Accelerators developed for Science now are used broadly for industrial, medical, and security applications. Over 30,000 accelerators touch over $500B/yr in products producing a major impact on our economy, health, and well being. Industrial accelerators must be cost effective, simple, versatile, efficient, and robust. Many industrial applications require high average beam power. Exploiting recent advances in Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) cavities and RF power sources as well as innovative solutions for the SRF gun and cathode system, a collaboration of Fermilab-CSU-NIU has developed a design for a compact SRF high-average power electron linac. Capable of 5-50 kW average power and continuous wave operation this accelerator will produce electron beam energies up to 10 MeV and small and light enough to mount on mobile platforms, such accelerators will enable new in-situ environmental remediation methods and new applications involving in-situ crosslinking of materials. More importantly, we believe this accelerator will be the first of a new class of simple, turn-key SRF accelerators that will find broad application in industry, medicine, security, and science.
