    Notes: An electrostatic probe for ion temperature and density measurements was built and tested in the scrape-off region of the TBR-1 small tokamak. The main parameters involved in the design and details of the construction of the probe are presented. The electron discrimination and the probe efficiency for ion detection were checked by measuring the probe current as a function of the collector retraction length for a constant voltage. The results for the ion temperature and density obtained from the characteristic curves are discussed and compared with previous measurements.

    Notes: As part of a new, compact heavy ion injector for the AGS/RHIC complex at Brookhaven National Laboratory we are developing an electron beam ion source (EBIS) that would satisfy present and future requirements. Such a source should be capable of producing intensities of, e.g., Au35+ ions of about 3×109 particles/pulse or U45+ of about 2×109 particles/pulse. To achieve this, the required e-beam intensity is 10 A, at a pulse length of 100 ms. An EBIS test stand has been constructed, designed for the full electron beam power and having close to 1/2 of the trap length of an EBIS for RHIC. Initial electron beam tests have resulted in a 50 μs, 13 A electron beam. Ion production and extraction has been shown with a 3.1 A, 50 ms electron beam, achieving an ion yield of 19 nC/pulse (neutralization degree of 61%); fast extraction trials have yielded extracted ion pulses of 1 mA peak current and 18 μs at FWHM. Details of the test stand construction, results of the electron beam studies, and properties of the extracted ion pulse are presented. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: To satisfy the requirements of a negative-ion-based neutral beam line for future fusion applications, an H− ion source was developed using surface production of negative ions and a steady-state plasma injection from hollow cathode discharges. Steady-state and stable generation of H− ions on a negatively biased, cesiated converter has been achieved over periods of several hours; H− beam current pulses of 0.3-A amplitude with 1-s duration have been extracted over the same period, but steady-state operation of the extractor has not been achieved yet due to a lack of extractor cooling. The source meets some of the neutral beam line requirements, i.e., the obtained linear current density, background gas pressure, and the proven capability for steady-state H− ion generation.

    Notes: A cold atomic hydrogen beam source has been built and tested at BNL. The flow channel of the source, consisting of a discharge tube, a constricting nozzle, a thermal transition section, and an accommodator, was designed to operate in the laminar flow range. A novel feature of this source is a 0.3-mm gap between the transition Teflon tube which guides the flow and an accommodator which cools the flowing gas; across this gap the wall temperature may step from 100 K in the Teflon to 3 K in the accommodator. A record pulsed H° beam flux of 9.4×1018 H° sr−1 s−1 was obtained at an accommodator temperature of 5.8 K. The gas dynamic analysis of the system is in excellent agreement with the experimental results.

    Notes: We are exploring a new approach for heavy-ion beam injection (e.g., into the relativistic heavy-ion collider at BNL), as well as new sources of intense high charge state ions to be mounted on a relatively low voltage platform for high energy ion implantation. While conventional metal vapor vacuum arc (Mevva) ion sources can produce up to hundreds of milliamps or more of several-times-ionized metal ions (e.g., U3+), the recent results from Batalin et al. indicate that the addition of an energetic electron beam may lead to considerably higher charge states. An alternative way to produce the electron beam is where a Z-discharge plasma is used to enhance multiple ionization. As the vacuum arc plasma plume expands into a magnetized drift region, a Z-discharge is triggered in the drifting metal plasma. The ions are then extracted and analyzed using a time-of-flight system. We report initial results using these schemes with applied discharge and electron beam voltages from 1 to 2 kV. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Results from a novel variation on the Stern–Gerlach method for magnetic separation are presented. A superconducting solenoid lens for spin selection and focusing of a cold atomic hydrogen beam has been built and tested at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The solenoid consists of three coils connected in series, with the current in the outer two coils counter to the current in the middle coil, resulting in a large magnetic field (up to 5.2 T) with strong gradients. Beam density enhancement (focusing) of up to a factor of 10 was achieved. Excellent qualitative agreement exists with ray-tracing calculations. Quantitatively, the experimental results show a lens performance which is a factor of at least 3 better than what these calculations predict.

    Notes: At Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), an electron-beam ion source (EBIS) is operational as a test bed for development of a high current EBIS for relativistic heavy-ion collider (RHIC). Previously, the goal of most EBIS research has been to produce bare or nearly bare nuclei. At BNL, the EBIS is required to produce only medium charge states of heavy ions, e.g., Au35+, since there is further stripping at higher energies. The BNL effort is directed at reaching intensities of interest to RHIC, approximately 3×109 particles/pulse, which will require an EBIS electron beam on the order of 10 A. Initial tests using a 1 mm LaB6 cathode have produced electron beam currents up to the design value of 110 mA. A 2 mm LaB6 cathode has been installed and in a first run has produced currents up to 350 mA. This source has so far produced charge states up to Ar16+ using neutral gas injection, and up to Tl50+ using external ion injection. Results of these studies and ion injection trials are presented. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Components are being developed which will eventually be part of a high-current polarized H− source. An atomic beam has been cooled to 6 K, resulting in a most probable velocity of approximately 680 m/s and a forward flux of about 3×1020 H0/sr/s. Focusing of this beam with a superconducting solenoid was unsuccessful at high H0 densities due to H0-H0 scattering. A permanent magnet sextupole is now being tested. An ionizer based on the charge exchange of the polarized H0 with ≈150-eV D− has also been studied.

    Notes: At Brookhaven National Laboratory, an Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) is operational and has produced charge states such as N7+, Ar16+, and Xe26+ using neutral gas injection. Ions such as Na7+ and Tl41+ have been produced using external ion injection. The BNL EBIS effort is directed at reaching intensities of interest to RHIC, approximately 3×109 particles/pulse which will require EBIS electron beams on the order of 10 A. Pulsed electron beams up to 1.14 A have been produced using a 3 mm LaB6 cathode. Ion yields corresponding to 50% of the maximum trap capacity for electron beams up to 0.5 A have been obtained. The goal for the TestEBIS is to produce a uranium ion charge state distribution peaked at U45+ with 50% of the trap capacity for a 1 A electron beam.

    Notes: A new ground state source of negative hydrogen ions with polarized nuclei (H−) is being developed at BNL. Extensive developmental research has been aimed at improving each element of (H−) production: cold H° beam, spin selection and focusing magnets, and ionizer. These elements have recently been integrated into a source. A first test with the accommodator nozzle cooled only to liquid nitrogen temperatures resulted in 5 μA of H−. Tests at liquid helium temperatures are now beginning.
