Techniques for correcting velocity and density fluctuations of ion beams in ion inducti on accelerators

It is well known that the imperfection of pulse power sources that drive the linear induction accelerators can lead to time-varying fluctuation in the accelerating voltages, which in turn leads to longitudinal emittance growth. We show that this source of emittance growth is correctable, even in spa...
