An accelerator is described which was designed to study irradiation damage in soils. The machine produces beams of protons and ions of the rare gases, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe, carrying currents up to 100 mu a and 10 to 100 kev focused down to spot diameters of the order of a mm on the target. Ions from an r-f source are focused by an Einzel lens and accelerated to final energy in a single gap,; the convergent beam is then magnetically analyzed by a 30 deg sector magnet and directed onto the target by a pair of strong focusing electrostatic quadrupole lenses. An allmetal vacuum system was constructed giving pressures between 10/sup -7/ and 10/sup -8/ mm Hg in the target-chamber. (auth)
