Operation of the fermilab H- magnetron source

  • 1. Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, P.O. Box 500, Batavia, IL 60510

Description

Installation of a grooved cathode and addition of a resistive heater around the source body have greatly improved the performance of the magnetron source. Lifetimes of nine months with stable pulsed beams of 50 mA have been achieved. Improvements and operation of the magnetron source at Fermilab will be presented. Recent tests with Lanthanum hexaboride as the cathode will be discussed
