RFQ-IH radioactive beam linac for ISAC
- TRIUMF, 4004 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver, V6T 2A3 (Canada)
The ISAC radioactive beam facility under construction at TRIUMF includes a 500 MeV proton beam (I{<=}100{mu}A) impinging on a thick target, an on-line source, a mass-separator, an accelerator complex, and experimental areas. The accelerator chain includes a 35 MHz RF Quadrupole (RFQ) to accelerate beams of A/q{<=}30 from 2 keV/u to 150 keV/u and a post-stripper, 105 MHz variable energy drift tube linac (DTL) to accelerate ions of 3{<=}A/q{<=}6 to a final energy from 0.15 to 1.5 MeV/u. The design concept and present status of the ISAC linear accelerator complex will be summarized. In particular, first rf and beam tests with the RFQ and the status of fabrication and testing of DTL components will be reported.
