Abstract
The Spallation Neutron Source front end incorporates a beam chopper in the LEBT that will remove a 295 ns section of beam at a 1.118 MHz rate (65% transmission) with less than 50 ns rise/falltime. The H/sup -/ beam pulse length is one ms at a 60-Hz rate (6% duty factor). The LEBT is all-electrostatic, and the chopper incorporates four 3-kV solid-state switches driving an einzel lens, split into quadrants, with a 4-phase chopping waveform. The suppressed beam is targeted on a four-segment Faraday cup which provides on-line intensity and steering diagnostics. Results of proton beam tests will be reported.
