Abstract
Results of studying processes accompanying the fast variation of the output energy of a medical proton linac during one microwave pulse have been summarized. Features of both the formation of a required microwave power pulse and the propagation of the microwave pulse in an inertialess dispersed traveling wave structure have been analyzed. Particular attention is paid to beam dynamics in a nonstationary electromagnetic microwave pulse. The application of the variation method under consideration will greatly increase speed of scanning along the depth in an irradiated object.
