Description

A 500 keV RFQ accelerator is being developed at the Texas Accelerator Center. The ion source for this machine is a magnetron type ion source with a single extraction gap. The design current is 10 mA of H- with an energy of 30 keV and εn,90% = 0.2 π mm-mrad. To date, peak currents in excess of 28 mA have been extracted from this ion source indicating that the current density at the extraction aperture is 2.1 A/cm2. Preliminary emittances have been obtained 10 cm from the extraction aperture. The extracted beam is transported approximately 30 cm by a helical electrostatic quadrupole lens (HESQ). Initial low current tests of the HESQ have shown that 55% of the focused beam lies within the RFQ acceptance
