A source of negative hydrogen ions is constructed at the Institute for High Energy Physics in order to raise the intensity of the U-70 accelerator complex using multiturn charge-exchange injection. The 3D ion-optical IBSimu simulation package was used to model and optimize the system for extraction of an ion beam from plasma, its acceleration to 100 keV, and matching with a radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator. The system of extraction of an ion beam with a current of 50 mA and electron-flow suppression was modeled. The magnetic transport channels with two solenoids and six quadrupole lenses were compared. The end goals of analysis of the matching channel were to obtain the needed Twiss parameters and to minimize the emittance growth at the RFQ input.
