Description

This chapter reviews the principles of ion production and the types of sources used on many present positive heavy-ion accelerators and other systems. ''Heavy'' ions are defined as those heavier than helium. Topics considered include the production of ions (electron bombardment, stripping of fast ions, surface ionization), beam extraction, beam focusing, beam diagnostics, and source descriptions (low charge state sources, present high charge state sources, advanced high charge state sources, short pulse sources)
