Title: Review of computer modeling of negative ion beam formation

Conference · · AIP Conf. Proc.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5860159

A computer algorithm to study negative ion beam formation from volume-produced ion sources is reviewed. The effects of field penetration, negatively biased extraction electrodes, and transverse magnetic field on beam emittance and extractability have been delineated. Beam transport through a plasma is discussed. (AIP)
