Description
Stripline kickers are widely used in particle accelerators. This paper presents the design of a fast stripline kicker operating at 1.28 MHz to enable pseudo-single-bunch mode in SPEAR3. The combination of the required kick strength and the high repetition rate creates significant challenges, primarily beam-induced heating of the kicker structure. The physics and mechanical designs were optimized to mitigate these effects. The design approach and key performance considerations are discussed.
