Optimization of ECR singly-charged ion sources for the radioactive ion beam production

Description

Measurements of the transformation time of atoms into ions were carried out with two 2.45 GHz electron cyclotron resonance ion sources (ECRIS) in the case of the simple ionization of He, Ne, Ar and Kr gases. The effect of the plasma volume, of the dead volumes and of the ionization efficiency are presented. Some rules are deduced for the design of the next ECRIS dedicated to radioactive ion production with noble gases
