Description

At the Tokyo Institute of Technology (TIT) a four-vane RFQ is to be applied for inertial confinement fusion research. The RFQ (TIT RFQ) is designed for acceleration of particles with charge to mass ratio (q/A) of 1/16 from 5keV/amu to 213keV/amu. The planned maximum injection beam current is 10mA for 16O+. Beam dynamics was calculated using a PIC (Particle-In-Cell) code which can take influence of the multipole components in the intervane potential into account. For input beam current of 10mA transmission of 60% was obtained. A half-scaled cold model was fabricated to investigate fundamental rf characteristics. In the cold model experiment, the difference in electric field strength between each quadrant was minimized to ±3% by using side tuners and flat field distribution along the beam axis was achieved by adjusting end tuners
