    Notes: The emittance of the intense proton beam extracted by the source SILHI at Commisariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA)-Saclay is a key parameter for the design of the IPHI Project RFQ. This parameter has a relevant role even for the design of an intense proton source for the TRASCO project of Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN). The tests performed in the framework of CEA-INFN collaboration have been mainly devoted to a 75 mA beam emittance investigation injecting different gases in the beam line. The results show that the rms normalized emittance decreases up to a factor 3 while the beam losses induced by recombination are contained within 5%. Normalized emittance in r-r′ plane of about 0.1 π min mrad have been obtained using Ar and Kr. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The high intensity light ion source (SILHI) is the electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) source constructed and tested at CEA-Saclay. The first aim is to produce up to 100 mA cw proton beams at 95 keV for the proton injection high intensity (IPHI) beams [5 MeV radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) and 10 MeV drift tube linac (DTL)]. This prototype is developed by a CEA–CNRS-IN2P3 collaboration for applications such as accelerator driven systems for nuclear waste transmutation, production of radioactive ion beams or secondary particles. SILHI is also used to study the production of deuteron and H− beams for the International Fusion Material Irradiation Facility and European spallation source projects, respectively. The present status of SILHI and the experiments planned for the near future in both cw and pulsed modes are presented in this article. 80 mA cw proton beams are now currently produced at 95 keV with a high availability (∼1 spark/day). The proton fraction is around 90% and the typical r–r′ rms normalized emittance after transport through a single solenoid low energy beam transport (LEBT) without beam losses is 0.3 πmm mrad. The best beam characteristics are obtained when an ECR zone is created at the frontier between the plasma chamber and the rf ridged transition. Extensive emittance measurements performed with different gas injection in the LEBT have shown a factor of three emittance reduction. Space charge compensation measurements in cw mode will be undertaken with a four-grid analyzer to understand this behavior. Time resolved space charge compensation measurements in pulsed mode are also discussed. The highest total beam current of 120 mA (240 mA/cm2) can be extracted with two ECR zones located at the plasma chamber extremities. Nevertheless a new electrode design must be done for this configuration to avoid excessive beam losses in the extraction system. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: SILHI is the ECR high intensity light ion source studied in France at C.E.A. Saclay. This is the source for the injector of the high intensity proton injector prototype developed by a CNRS-IN2P3 collaboration. 80 mA at 95 keV beams with a rms normalized r–r′ emittance lower than 0.3 π mm mrad and a proton fraction better than 85% are currently produced. Recently, it has been found that the injection in the low energy beam transport of a buffer gas had a strong effect on the emittance measured 1 m downstream of the focusing solenoid. By adding several gases (H2, N2, Ar, Kr), improvements as great as a factor of 3 have been observed. The emittance has been measured by means of an r–r′ emittance measurement unit equipped with a sampling hole and a wire profile monitor, both moving across the beam. Simultaneously, the space charge compensation factor is measured using a four-grid analyzer unit. In this article all results of these experiments are presented and discussed. A first explanation of the emittance reduction phenomenon and possible consequences on the injector operation is given. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A large high current EBIS source, working at room temperature, and using a noncryogenic solenoid, has been completed in Saclay. This source, whose current density is lower (≈100 A cm−2) than the cryogenic EBIS, has been designed to be used at very low pressures with turbo and Ti sublimator pumping. An ultimate vacuum of 8×10−12 mbar has been reached and may be obtained in a few days after opening. This ultrahigh vacuum allows very long confinement times. The electron beam has been injected and large amounts of Ar16+ and Ar17+ ions have been obtained in July. These preliminary results are in good agreement with theoretical simulations. More details about the special dynamics of the warm EBIS are presented. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A 2.45 GHz electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source for producing a 100 mA H+ beam is under study. The microwave power is coupled through a quartz window and a water-cooled 90° waveguide bend in order to avoid the heating of the electrons backstreaming from the source. The ECR condition is obtained with dc magnetic coils. Preliminary results reported here show that a beam current density of 75 mA/cm2 can be extracted at 10 kV from a 3-mm-diam aperture, with 1.2 kW of microwave power at 1×10−3 mbar of hydrogen pressure. The proton fraction is 75% with an alumina-coated plasma electrode and 85% with a nitride coating. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The SATURNE synchrotron facility is equipped with an EBIS source for heavy ion nuclear-physics experiments. SATURNE is accelerating either conventional heavy ions as Kr30+ or polarized 6Li3+ produced in two external ion sources, injected and stripped inside DIONÉ. In this paper, the DIONÉ last performances will be given and recent developments as well: evaporative cooling experiments and the main options for a new EBIS project: RHÉA.

    Notes: A hollow cathode ion source (HCIS) has been developed in our Laboratory to produce, by cathodic sputtering in a glow discharge, a one charge metallic ion beam. This source is used as an injector for the electron-beam ion source (EBIS) Dioné that produce, after ion stripping, a highly charged heavy-ion beam for acceleration in Mimas–Saturne synchrotrons. Due to the good pulse-to-pulse repeatability of the HCIS, the very long lifetime of the cathode (several months), as well as the very good value of the normalized emittance (εnorm=4×10−9 π mrad), this source appears as an ideal EBIS injector for metallic and gaseous elements. In this paper we report the description of the HCIS and the experimental results achieved, after injection in the EBIS, by the production of heavy-ion beams like Fe20+, Au50+, and U55+ (from 4×107 to 9×106 ions/cycle).

    Notes: Source of light ions with high intensities The (SILHI) source has been producing proton beams since 1996. The first aim is to produce up to 100 mA cw beams at 95 keV for the injector of protons for high intensity demonstrator. This prototype is developed by a CEA/DSM–CNRS/IN2P3 collaboration for applications such as accelerator driven systems for nuclear waste transmutation, production of radioactive ion beams, or secondary particles. To measure installation reliability, continuous 5 day long runs have been performed. In October 1999, a 99.96% availability was achieved with a single short beam off and a 103 H uninterrupted beam. A new extraction system leads to lower beam losses and higher LEBT transparency. SILHI now produces a 95 keV–130 mA total beam with a proton fraction higher than 80%. Up to a 157 mA (247 mA/cm2) total cw beam has been extracted. The new EPICS control system, electromagnetic interference hardened devices and automatic control procedures now allow us to do longer runs. To analyze the reliability of these upgrades, a 4 week test was planned. In the framework of the International Fusion Material Irradiation Facility project CEA participation, 135 mA–95 kV deuteron pulsed beams were produced. Extraction simulations and recent SILHI results are also presented. In addition, a new test bench has been recently developed to analyze H− beam production. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.
