Abstract
We present a topology for linear accelerators (linacs) that permits larger degrees of freedom for the optimization of individual cavity shapes. The power is distributed to the cavities through a waveguide with periodic apertures that guarantees the correct phases and amplitudes along the structure. This topology optimizes the power consumption and efficiency and allows the manipulation of the surface fields for high gradient operation. It also provides a possibility for low-temperature manufacturing techniques for use with novel materials. This greatly enhanced performance for both normal and superconducting linacs. We present a design and an experimental demonstration of this linac.
