Charge breeding time investigations of electron cyclotron resonance charge breeders

Prospects for advanced electron cyclotron resonance and electron beam ion source charge breeding methods for EURISOL.

As the most ambitious concept of isotope separation on line (ISOL) facility, EURISOL aims at producing unprecedented intensities of post-accelerated radioactive isotopes. Charge breeding, which transforms the charge state of radioactive beams from 1+ to an n+ charge state prior to post-acceleration, is a key technology which has to overcome the following challenges: high charge states for high ...

Status of Far-tech’s Electron-cyclotron-resonance Charge-breeder Simulation Toolset; Mcbc Gem and Ionex *

The status of FAR-TECH’s electron-cyclotronresonance charge-breeder simulation toolset (MCBC, GEM and IonEx) is described. FAR-TECH, Inc. has been building a suite of comprehensive numerical tools for end-to-end Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) charge breeding (CB) modeling [1]. They consist of the Monte Carlo Beam Capture (MCBC) code [2,3], the Generalized ECRIS Modeling (GEM) code [3,4], an...

Monte Carlo Model of Charge-state Distributions for Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source Plasmas

A computer model for an Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source (ECRIS) plasma is under development that currently incorporates non-Maxwellian distribution functions, multiple atomic species, and ion confinement due to the ambipolar potential that arises from fast electrons. Atomic processes incorporated into the model include multiple ionization and multiple charge-exchange with rate coefficie...

Charge Resonance and Charge Transfer Interactions

Abstrtct Chrge resonance interaction in naphthalene homomd heterodimer cations is studied by photodissociation spc'troscopy ofthe charge resonance and the local excitation transitions. The resonance interaction in naphthalene dimer cation is slightly weaker than that ofa benzene dimer cation because ofpartial overlapping ofthe respective aromatic rings. A local excitationband ofthe benzene cati...
