متن کاملPlasma Neutralization Models for Intense Ion Beam Transport in Plasma
Plasma neutralization of an intense ion pulse is of interest for many applications, including plasma lenses, heavy ion fusion, cosmic ray propagation, etc. An analytical electron fluid model has been developed based on the assumption of long charge bunches (lb>>rb). Theoretical predictions are compared with the results of calculations utilizing a particle-in-cell (PIC) code. The cold electron f...
متن کاملNonlinear Charge and Current Neutralization for an Ion Beam Pulse Propagating through a Background Plasma
This paper demonstrates the possibility of quasi-steadystate transport of a finite-length ion beam through a chamber filled with plasma of arbitrary density. We conclude that, in principle, partially-current-neutralized equilibria exist in the reference frame moving with the ion charge bunch for arbitrary ratio of beam density to plasma density. The electric and magnetic fields generated by the...
متن کاملHeavy-ion Beam Acceleration of Two-charge States from an Ecr Ion Source
This paper describes a design for the front end of a superconducting (SC) ion linac which can accept and simultaneously accelerate two charge states of uranium from an ECR ion source. This mode of operation increases the beam current available for the heaviest ions by a factor of two. We discuss the 12 MeV/u prestripper section of the Rare Isotope Accelerator (RIA) driver linac including the LE...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the Charge State Evolution and Energy Losses in Heavy Ion Beam-plasma Interactions
To analyse the charge state and energy evolutions of heavy ions travelling through a laser created plasma, a Monte-Carlo code has been written. A detailed account of the physical processes involved during the interaction is given here. The code is applied to the interaction of a Cu-beam with a C-plasma and with an A2-plasma.
