- Development of an automated system for the operation of an electron beam accelerator Samir Luiz Somessari J. A. Moura W. A. P. Calvo Biología accelerator Dynamitron® Electron beam automated system Electron beam accelerators are used in many applications, such as basic physical research, chemistry, medicine, molecular biology, microelectronics, agriculture and industry, among others. The majority of the accelerators have electrons from a hot tungsten filament and their energy is increased as it passes through an electric field in the vacuum chamber. For industrial purposes, the most common model is Dynamitron®. At IPEN-CNEN/SP, there is an electron beam accelerator Dynamitron® Type (Manufactured by RDI - Radiation Dynamics Inc., 1978) model DC1500/25/4. The technology applied was available in the 60´s and 70´s, but, nowadays is obsolete. Moreover, there are not original spare parts for this equipment any longer. The aim of this work is to develop a nationalized automated operation system for the accelerator, to replace the old equipment and allow extending the useful life of the accelerator for around ten years. 2019 artículo científico 2319-0612 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=722280838058 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7222 Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Proteção Radiológica - SBPR Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences (Brasil) Num.2A Vol.7
