High current direct injection to a CW RFQ using an ECR proton source

Description

The results of a direct injection experiment on the cw RFQ1-1250 proton accelerator are reported. The experiment was made possible by a high-current low-emittance electron cyclotron resonance ion source, with 70 to 90% proton fraction and a gas efficiency of up to 60%. A beam transport system, consisting only of drift spaces and a solenoid lens, matched the beam to the radiofrequency quadrupole. A relatively high pressure in the low energy beam transport system ensured a high degree of neutralization to counteract space charge forces. (Author) 9 refs., 3 figs
