Very intense proton sources are being planned at many facilities worldwide. These facilities are based on superconducting radio frequency accelerating structures. The nature of these structures require many power sources with a peak power capability in the 1 MW range with a duty factor on the order of 10%. In the past, the conventional choice for RF power has been klystron based systems. The cost...
