The Heidelberg MP-tandem has been used to produce highly stripped ions of S 14,15,16+, Ni 20+ and Br/sup 23 +/ which subsequently were decelerated by the normal conducting rf-postaccelerator. The minimum energy obtained so far in the deceleration mode is 0.15 MeV/amu for S/sup 15/. Although the beam transmission is decreasing with decreasing final energy because of a longitudinal and transverse emittance growth, decelerated beams have been routinely used for atomic physics experiments.
