Description

Measurements are reported of the attenuation of an ion beam in a multipole double-plasma (DP) device. In addition to charge-exchange collisions of the beam ions with the gas atoms, ion scattering by the three-dimensional turbulence produced by the beam itself is found to contribute significantly to the beam attenuation.
