Description

A small cold cathode type PIG heavy ion source was designed and examined in connection with the CYRIC cyclotron which has the K-number of 50 MeV (Model 680 machine by the design of CGR-MeV). The characteristics of the ion source were measured with nitrogen gas for various operating parameters such as gas flow rate, arc power consumption and pulsing duty factor. At the present stage, the life time of the ion source is approximately 6 hours for an 84-MeV 14N5+ ion beam with an intensity of 3.5 μA at R = 650mm
