Title: Continuous liquid sheet generator for ion stripping

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6315707· OSTI ID:6315707

Many of the technical problems of generating a large thin liquid sheet from 0.02 to 0.20 ..mu..m thick (3 to 40 ..mu..gm/cm/sup 2/) have been solved. It is shown that this perennial sheet is stable and consonant in dimension. Several ion beam species from the SuperHILAC have been used for evaluation; at 0.11 MeV/n. In one of three modes this sheet serves as an equivalent substitute for a carbon foil. The second mode is characterized by a solid-like charge state distribution but with a varying fraction of unstripped ions. The third mode gives stripping performance akin to a vapor stripping medium. 9 references, 7 figures.
