Mounting of larger stripper foils for use in the terminal of an electrostatic accelerator

Description

A method of mounting stripper foils is proposed using a high transmission tungsten grid. This enables the foil to be subdivided into a large number of independent foils, failure of any one of which does not affect the rest. It is thus possible to use a large foil moved across the beam to obtain a very long life. The results and a prototype mechanism to exploit this are described. (Auth.)
