Abstract The conceptual design of a prototype S-band pulsed, 9.5 MeV compact microtron with type-II injection is described. Estimates of parameters such as beam current and cathode lifetime, and comparisons with X-band and C-band parameters are presented. The electron beam can be extracted at various energies up to 9.5 MeV. Estimated yields of gammas produced at 6.5 MeV operation and estimated yields of gammas and neutrons produced at 9.5 MeV are presented.
