## Description

Introduction of a Medium Energy Beam Transport \(MEBT\) section between the existing Radio Frequency Quadrupole \(RFQ\) and Tank 1, utilising four resonant cavities along with quadrupole magnets, will permit a more efficient use of the available beam current in the linear accelerator\. Options are requested to be presented for RF amplifiers using a solid state based approach to drive the four resonant cavities, plus one spare: a total of five \(5\) amplifiers are required\. We are seeking a solution that provides a high level of reliability, maintainability and compatibility\. Capabilities requested within this specification are chosen to also accommodate potential future requirements\.
