Ion Source Development at the Agor Facility∗

This paper discusses the present status of ion source development at KVI. Work is mainly focussed on increasing the beam intensity of the ECRIS injector and to optimize the beam transport and injection into the AGOR cyclotron. The ultimate goal is to deliver a 1 kW beam of heavy ions on target. Recent progress towards this goal is discussed. We also present the first results of beam extraction ...

Ion Beam Measurements at the Superconducting ECR Ion Source SECRAL

Ion Source Related Research Work at Jyfl*

In this article the work of the JYFL ion source group will be presented. New bremsstrahlung measurements were carried out in order to compare the results with different electron heating models. Especially attention was paid to study the effect of different heating parameters on the evolution of bremsstrahlung energy. A project to obtain new information about the ion temperatures and their time ...

Status of the CO2 Laser Ion Source at CERN

A laser ion source using a CO2 laser focused onto a solid target is under study at CERN for the production of high currents of highly-charged heavy ions, for possible use in the pre-injector for LHC. A new expansion and extraction layout was installed in this test facility, improving the alignment and making the target to extraction distance more flexible. A two solenoid beam transport system w...

Installing the Vespa H Ion Source Test Stand at Ral

A Penning-type negative hydrogen (H) ion source has been used reliably on the ISIS pulsed spallation neutron and muon facility at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in the UK for almost 30 years. However a detailed study of the ion source plasma and extraction has never been undertaken. If these properties were known, the beam emittance and losses due to collimation could be reduced, and ...
