Field-enhanced lithium ion sources for PBFA II

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5222379
Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) experiments at 30 MeV on the Particle Beam Fusion Accelerator (PBFA) II at Sandia National Laboratories will require the use of high intensity, high purity beams of singly ionized lithium ions. One approach which is being tested to produce such beams is the use of field-enhanced lithium ion sources. We have identified several ion production mechanisms which may be active in this source. 8 refs., 2 figs.
