Very intense source of flash x rays

This article describes the design of a very intense source of flash x rays using the HERMES III electron accelerator that delivers a measured peak dose and peak dose rate of (370±58) krad(CaF2) and (3.5±0.7)×1013 rad(CaF2)/s, respectively, over a useful area of 80 cm2, without target destruction.

Zusammenfassung:This article describes the design of a very intense source of flash x rays using the HERMES III electron accelerator that delivers a measured peak dose and peak dose rate of (370±58) krad(CaF2) and (3.5±0.7)×1013 rad(CaF2)/s, respectively, over a useful area of 80 cm2, without target destruction. Measured electron and photon source distributions agree with those generated from a numerical model. The quality of the agreement gives credibility to both and validates the main assumptions of the model.
