REPORT 
Novel pulsed RF power amplifier design (MS28)  / Eric Montesinos (CERN), John Lyles (LANL)
WP7 / Task 7.2 
The Ionisation Cooling Test Facility at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory is the only facility in the world capable of providing the necessary infrastructure to develop the technologies required for muon cooling for the Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider communities. MICE is expected to be completed by 2014 after which the six-dimensional (6D) ionization cooling R&D programme will be initiated. It is likely that the 6D cooling programme will take 10 years to complete. Therefore it is crucial that the ICTF infrastructure be sustainable until at least 2024. It is therefore essential that preparations be made to replace the triode-based amplifiers in a future upgrade. For this reason, it is proposed to carry out a design study of a novel tetrodebased high-power amplifier using a Diacrode* that will form the basis of a future upgrade to the ICTF RF power system. Recent work on a similar amplifier system at Los Alamos National Laboratory provides insight to a proven design that is now commercially made. This proposal will summarize that design as it is becoming a new standard for 200 MHz RF power systems to replace older triode-based amplifiers that use legacy or obsolete vacuum electron devices.
