Experimental evaluation of a negative-ion source for a heavy-ion fusion negative-ion driver [PDF]
Abstract Negative halogen ions have recently been proposed as a possible alternative to positive ions for heavy-ion fusion drivers because electron accumulation would not be a problem in the accelerator, and if desired, the beams could be photodetached to neutrals (Nucl. Instr. and Meth. A 464 (2001) 315; Fusion Sci. Technol.

A negative ion source for alkali ions [PDF]
An ion source is described which delivers negative alkali ions. With this source, which consists of a duoplasmatron and a charge exchange canal with alkali vapour, negative Li, Na and K ions are produced. The oven in which alkali metals are evaporated can reach temperatures up to 575°C.

Response of negative ion beamlet width and axis deflection to RF field in beam extraction region [PDF]
Beam-divergence characteristics of single negative ion beamlet have been experimentally investigated with a superimposition of a controlled perturbation of a radio frequency wave (RF) field in a filament-arc discharge negative ion source. Oscillations of

In this Tutorial, surface and double charge exchange negative ion sources for producing negative ion beams of different ion species will be described. The need for negative ions as the beam particles of tandem Van de Graaf accelerators and that for charge exchange injection of hydrogen negative ions into high-energy proton accelerators requires the ...

High-intensity negative ion sources [PDF]
The production of beams of negative deuterium ions was studied with two ion sources with geometries that could be employed in a cyclotron. The negative ions were extracted directly from the arc in a direction normal to the magnetic field without using a charge-exohange medium. With a high gas pressure in the arc and an arc current of 5 amp, a 2-ma beam

Development of negative muonium ion source for muon acceleration
A negative muonium ion (Mu^{-}) source using an aluminum foil target (Al target) was developed as a low-energy muon source. Mu^{-} ions are produced by irradiating the Al target with a 3-MeV positive muon (μ^{+}) beam and observed using a microchannel ...
