Beam transmission and emittance measurements on the RFQ1 accelerator

  • 1. Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., Chalk River, Ontario (Canada)

Description

RFQ1 is an accelerator project to develop high-proton current cw RFQ's suitable for scientific and industrial applications such as neutron sources, nuclear waste transmutation and fissile fuel breeding. The accelerator, which comprises a 50 keV dc injector and a 0.6 MeV cw radiofrequency quadrupole accelerator, is a test bed for a wide range of high-power RFQ experiments. The structure was designed to accelerate 75 mA of protons and has achieved the full design current. Measurements are reported on the output beam transmission and emittance for four-beamlet proton beam injection from a duoPIGatron ion source
