The GSI high current RFQ prototype

  • 1. Inst. fuer Angewandte Physik, J.W. Goethe Univ. Frankfurt (Germany)

Description

A new high current injector (HSI) for the UNILAC and the SIS synchrotron for all ions up to uranium is planned at GSI. The spiral-RFQ accelerator accepts low energy (2.2 keV/u), high current (25 mA) beams at low charge states (U2+) at an operating frequency of 27.1 MHz. Results of particle dynamics calculations and structure development for the first crucial part of the HSI-RFQ where all the bunch forming is done, is presented together with results of rf measurements and first beam tests.
