摘要：

At the Institut fur Kernphysik of Mainz University a harmonic double-sided microtron (HDSM) has been built to extend the experimental capabilities for nuclear and particle physics experiments to higher excitation energies. This novel microtron variant accelerates the 0.855GeV continuous wave (cw) electron beam of the established three-staged race track microtron (RTM) cascade MAMI B up to 1.5 GeV. It consists of two normal conducting linear accelerators (linacs) through which the electrons are guided up to 43 times by a pair of 90 degrees-bending magnets at each end. For beam dynamical reasons the linacs operate at the harmonic frequencies of 4.90 and 2.45 GHz. The extended facility is called MAMI C. The relatively strong vertical defocussing due to the 45 degrees-pole face rotations (Fig. 1) at both the entrance and exit of the segment-shaped bending magnets is compensated for all recirculations by a suitable field decay in the magnets towards higher orbits. As a consequence, the energy gain of the electrons has to decrease with increasing turn number to maintain coherent acceleration. This occurs by an appropriate phase slip of the electron bunches downwards the rf-waves during the acceleration process. In this paper the functional principle and the beam dynamical concept of the double-sided microtron (DSM) as well as the design and development of its main components are described. Finally, the results of first beam measurements taken after starting up in December 2006 are discussed. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
