The study of SNF reprocessing is impossible without obtaining and studying a multicomponent, low-energy and complex ion beam of an “umbrella” shape. The beam is obtained from a plasma flow created in a plasma source (PS) with a magnetic field of about 3 T, flowing along the axis into a weak magnetic field, at a level of 0.1…0.5 T. At the same time, its density decreases, and the entire energy of the plasma is converted into a jet directed along the axis. To randomize the particles of the jet plasma, a reflecting magnetic field is further placed on the axis. Without changing direction, the plasma flows in a hollow magnetic force tube around a solenoid with a reverse magnetic field. In this region, ions are drawn out in the radial direction towards the annular hole of the “pocket”. The target ions, M (230-277) follow umbrella trajectories and, being neutralized, are deposited in the “pocket” on the inner walls, the remaining ~ 3% are scattered and remain on the walls of the separator.

The results of numerical PIC-simulation of the dynamics of accelerated positron and drive electron bunches under wake acceleration in a dielectric waveguide filled with plasma with a vacuum channel are presented. The wake field was excited by an electron bunch in a quartz dielectric tube inserted into a cylindrical metal waveguide. The inner region of the dielectric tube was filled with plasma with a vacuum channel along the waveguide axis. The difference in the energy and spatial characteristics, acceleration efficiency, emittance, and energy spread for positron and electron bunches is studied for different radii of the vacuum channel and two models of the plasma density dependence on the radius: a homogeneous and an inhomogeneous dependence characteristic of a capillary discharge.

A new concept of the main part of multicharged ions linear accelerator (MILAC) NSC KIPT on the combined RF focusing (CRFF) basis is proposed.

The analysis of the experimental systems for research of secondary electron emission during the interaction of electron beams with matter is presented. The three most common and methodologically developed variants of experimental systems are considered. According to their design features and methodological capabilities, they allow for the study of the main parameters of secondary emission depending on the primary electron beam energy and the sample thickness. The evolution of the experimental measuring systems and their improvement from simple to three-electrode systems with pass-through collectors is considered too. The peculiarities of registration of the secondary electrons current emitted from the studied target surface depending on the structural features of the target device are considered too. Application results of the developed three-electrode measuring system for research thin foil emission characteristics have been discussed.

The excitation of an electromagnetic TM mode by a relativistic electron beam in a waveguide with a sinusoidalcorrugated azimuth conducting wall in a constant uniform external guiding magnetic field is theoretically studied. We consider a thin annular electron beam moving along the waveguide axis and rotating at an equilibrium radius around its axis. In the approximation of a small corrugation depth, the analytical dependences of the growth rate of instability and resonant frequencies on the parameters of the beam and waveguide are determined.

The efficiency of diamond coating synthesis depends on both the parameters of the plasma flow and the uniform temperature distribution on the surface of the substrate on which the coating is synthesized. Mathematical modeling of the substrate cooling system in the installation for the deposition of coatings by the gas plasma method was carried out in order to find optimal parameters at which high density and radial uniformity of energy and chemically active particle flows are simultaneously achieved on the substrate in the process of synthesis of diamond coatings. The task was solved by direct search methods using the FlowSimulation module of the SolidWorks package.

To date, LuAG:Ce crystals are one of the most common scintillators, since they have been known for a long time and there are technologies for mass production of large-volume crystals. However, the scintillation properties of such crystals can be improved by creating mixed crystals with the replacement of some ions by others. In this work, composite scintillators based on the grown LuYAG:Ce inorganic crystals were produced. For the obtained samples, studies of optical transmission, luminescence, light output, and decay time were carried out. The optimal conditions and sizes of crystalline grains for the creation of composite scintillators have been determined.

To conduct experiments to determine the amplitude of the electric field and the transformation ratio in the wake field accelerator based on dielectric structures excited by electron bunches of the Almaz-2 electron accelerator, a probe was developed and manufactured. The probe consists of a ¼ wavelength antenna (27 mm) and a detection circuit based on a 2A201A microwave diode. To calibrate the probe, a measuring stand was assembled, consisting of a microwave generator and a horn emitter. A SPEKTRAN spectrum analyzer (Germany) was used as a microwave power meter, and a digital oscilloscope was used as a meter of the detected signal from the probe. The results of measurements made on the stand show that at a microwave radiation power of 26 mW/m2 and an electric microwave field strength of 2.6 V/m at the measurement point, the output signal from the probe is 1 mV.

The preliminary experimental results as well as modeling the heating of thin-foil materials during the passage of high-energy electrons with energy of 15 MeV are presented. Foils of 50 μm titanium, 50 μm aluminum and 125 μm Kapton® were chosen as the test targets. A calculation technique has been developed, which consists of automating the finite difference method applying Python programming language tools. These tools allowed solving the problem of heat distribution in the thin foil, taking into account the ionization losses of the primary electron beam and the black body radiation. The data on the surface temperature distribution of the research samples were obtained. The time for establishing thermal equilibrium was determined taking into account the distribution of the electron beam current density. It is shown that optimization of the main parameters of the high-energy electron beam beam (for example the current density) makes it possible to neglect the thermal loads on these films, which was confirmed during bench tests at 30 MeV electron accelerator of the IHEPNP NSC KIPT.
