Abstract

Construction of high‐current low‐energy particle accelerators is underway in Argentina by CNEA. The construction of the 600 keV accelerator designed as a neutron generator based on deuteron beams and a 9Be target is presented. Description of the development and local manufacture of sub‐systems such as ion sources, high voltage sources, accelerating cavities, electrostatic quadrupoles and targets is given together with first tests and evaluation of operation. An overview of the existing 20 MeV Tandem accelerator and its experimental program is also included.
