Scientific paper

The SNS linac accelerates an average beam current of 2 mA to an energy of 968 MeV. The linac is pulsed at 60 Hz with an H- beam pulse of 1 ms. The first 185 Mev of the linac uses normal conducting cavities, and the remaining length of the linac uses superconducting cavities. The linac operates at 402.5 MHz up to 87 MeV and then changes to 805 MHz for the remainder. This paper gives an overview of the Linac RF system. The overview includes a description and configuration of the high power RF components, the HV converter/modulator, and the RF controls. Issues and tradeoffs in the RF system will be discussed, especially with regards to the use of pulsed superconducting cavities.
