The new technology of LINACas a sealed off ultrahigh Vacuum High power device is coming at a fast rate. What you can do about it? There are several channels, to which you can talk. The idea is to create LOCAL neutron source facility and isotopes availability. How to posses the maximum equipment? Here is a capability to promote, of course, with the objective of which accelerator to be used and for what end use? Man power training in high technology and develop suitable formulations for isotopes utility.
Prof. R.V.Sita Ram,Professor in T.I.F.R at time of Transfer to SAMEER as its first, founding Director SAMEER, Powai, Mumbai has outlined the on the 29th January 2009 between 5.00PM to 6.45 PM, the strategy to establish the LINAC. The study meeting was held at the residence of Late Gorthi Venkata Rao (former Professor of History, AU, Visakhapatnam) in the first lane of Official Colony, Maharanipeta, attended by Prof E.V.Gangadharam, Dr.D.V.N.Sarma, Dr. Gorthi Padmavathi and Prof. K. Lakshmi Narayana. The meeting was initiated by the persistent effort of Shri Dr. Sudha Shankar Bhide of SAMEER who has developed advanced technology for Sealed off compact high energy, high power LINAC tubes and systems. Actually the research on accelerators was an outcome of Dr. Homi. J. Bhaba’s concern of development of clean radiation sources for High Energy studies and radioactive prospecting in India . Shri Sita Ram studied at Narasannapeta in Vizag and did his Intermediate course study in a college in Parlkamidi Town bordering Orissa state. He complete his B.Sc. M.Sc. degree courses in Banaras Hindu University , and joined the TIFR in 1947 after having been interviewed by Dr Homi J Bhaba. Prof R V. S. Sita Ram He worked and drew the preliminary designs of accelerator designs in Mumbai and worked in the environment of T.I.F.R Mumbai in its successive locations at Peddar Road ,Old Yatch Club, and present T.I.F.R Building .
During 1947-1960 Prof. R.V. S. Sita Ram worked on the properties of cosmic rays, particle detectors, high speed electronics, Radio Astronomy and other various programmes of T.I.F.R. In 1960, T.I.F.R used an accelerator for a long time obtaining Electronics and Gamma Rays of energy 3.5 MeV. Acceleration was achieved in the field of Microwaves.
But H.J.Bhaba was more concerned of development of country and to apply the scientific knowledge. The first step was to have Geological Prospecting and portable GM counters were designed and developed. Mostly U and Th sources underground were detected at several places in India . Shri Sita Ram has provided the electronic circuits for such equipment. The idea was to quantify the actual Radioactivity mines.
Prof. R.V. S. Sita Ram had opportunity to work in UK accelerator Laboratories,during 1950-1952 when their Theory and Technology was just being discovered and applied.
When Prof. R.V. S. Sita Ram took over the Directorship of SAMEER he concentrated on electron linear Accelerators that use of high power Microwaves while Cyclotrons and Synchrotrons use relatively lower radiofrequencies. SAMEER developed LINACS for specific applications for cancer therapy in hospitals and for Non-Destructive testing Radiography for Space Applications and Industry. They can also be used to produce Isotopes and Neutron beams.
Some of the Radar Applications contributed by SAMEER are MST Radar at Tirupati, Radiotheodolites used at several Meteorological stations,Tracking Radars used in ISRO, weather Doppler radars now in experimental stage.
Man power training in proposed high technology areas of Isotopes and neutron beams, helps developing countries to catch up with developed countries like China, Japan, Europe,USA and Russia
