Abstract
An apparatus for delivering a beam of charged particles along two separate beam paths comprising a pulsed charged particle beam source for producing a series of beam pulses along a first beam path, a switching magnet for developing a magnetic field, and a power supply means for selectively applying current pulses to said switching magnet in timed relation to each of a plurality of predetermined beam pulses effective to develop a constant magnetic field throughout the period of each predetermined beam pulse and deflect each entire predetermined beam pulse from said first beam path to a second beam path.
