AI Article Synopsis
- Vacuum arc ion sources, Penning ion sources, and filament driven multicusp ion sources are utilized at the GSI accelerator facility for generating high current ion beams of various metallic and gaseous ions.
- These ion sources must deliver a stable beam at 2.2 keV/u energy and can handle a maximum mass-to-charge ratio of 65 for efficient accelerator operation.
- The report details the performance metrics of the ion sources during beam time operation, highlighting parameters like ion beam current, spectrum, transversal emittance, lifetime, duty factor, and transmission in the low energy beam transport.
Article Abstract
Vacuum arc ion sources, Penning ion sources, and filament driven multicusp ion sources are used for the production of high current ion beams of a variety of metallic and gaseous ions at the GSI accelerator facility. For accelerator operation, the ion sources have to provide a stable beam over a long period of time with an energy of 2.2 keV/u and a maximum mass over charge ratio of 65. The status of beam time operation at the high current injector is presented here giving an outline on important ion source data, such as ion beam current, ion beam spectrum, transversal emittance, life time, duty factor, and transmission along the low energy beam transport section.
