Abstract
A double pass linear accelerator which is used in a radiation therapy unit to provide electron radiation or photon bremsstrahlung radiation when combined with an appropriate target. The accelerator operates in a standing wave mode and includes an accelerating section, a charged particle source and injection section, a microwave source operating in the S band and adapted to excite the accelerating section and a reflector system which is mounted at one end of the accelerating section to reflect a particle beam which has been accelerated due to one pass, back into the accelerating section such that it may be further accelerated. The distance between the reflector is made adjustable to provide for output particle energy variation.
