Title: An ion-source model for first-order beam dynamic codes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10178012

A model of a plasma ion source has been developed that approximates the system of Poisson and Boltzmann-Vlasov equations normally used to describe ion sources by an external electric field, a collective electric field due to the charge column, and the starting boundary conditions. The equations of this model can be used directly in the Lorentz force equation to calculate trajectories without iteration.
