Unilac upgrading program
- 1. Gesellschaft fuer Schwerionenforschung mbH, Darmstadt, Germany
Description
At the present time ions of the heaviest elements can be accelerated with the Unilac up to specific energies of 8.5 MeV/u with stripping in gas and upto 10 MeV/u with a foil stripper. Using a second foil stripper in front of the single-gap cavity structure 12.5 MeV/u can be reached. By adding two Alvarez tanks, the energy will be increased for the different operation modes to 14.5, 16.0 and 20 MeV/u respectively. Details of this energy increase project are described, which is to be realized by the end of 1981. Part of the upgrading program is also the modification of the Unilac for multi-ion beam operation and the construction of a new high-current injector
