The design and construction of an 0.8 A, 300 kV accelerator of posive hydrogen ions is presented. This system consists of an RF positive ion source with AlN discharge chamber, and uses a multi-aperture four electrode extraction system for ion beam generation. Six 50 kV power supplies, connected in series, can produce 300 kV for beam acceleration.
This talk/poster presents the current capabilities and recent facility upgrades at the Centre for Accelerator Science (CAS), within the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO). Two of our accelerators are equipped with heavy ion nuclear microprobes, capable of focussing and scanning ion beams with micron-level precision. More than 20 ion species can be selected for...
ISOLDE is a CERN facility dedicated to the production of radioactive ion beams for applications in atomic physics, nuclear astrophysics, fundamental interactions, and life sciences. The 1.4 GeV proton beam, coming from the Proton Synchrotron Booster (beam power of 2.8 kW) impinges on a thick target kept at high temperature during irradiation. The generated radionuclides diffuse out of the...
The Physics Beyond Colliders (PBC) is a CERN exploratory study aimed to fully exploit the scientific potential of its accelerator complex and infrastructure. To enhance and complement the physics program of the Large Hadron Collider experiments, PBC provides support to different working groups.
Among them, the Beam Dump Facility (BDF) is being considered as potential general-purpose...
