A surface-ionization ion source designed for in-beam operation with the BEMS-2 isotope separator

  • 1. Joint Inst. for Nuclear Research, Dubna (USSR)

Description

A surface-ionization ion source designed to operate in combination with the BEMS-2 isotope separator in a heavy ion beam is described. The ion source is adjusted for the separation of rare-earth elements. The separation efficiency for 150Dy is determined to be equal to about 20% at an ionizer temperature of 2600 K. The hold-up times for praseodymium, promethium and dysprosium in the ion source range from 5 to 10 s at ionizer temperatures of 2500-2700 K. (Auth.)
