DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6380914· OSTI ID:6380914
An experiment was done with a D/sup +/ ion source on a test stand, after which the pulsing system was installed on an RTNS-II neutron source to demonstrate its feasibility as an intense pulsed neutron source. The ion source MATS-II was run in the pulsed mode. A maximum current of 115 mA was obtained by arc pulsing, but with a pulse width of more than 200 msec. In the pulsed operation of RTNS-II, the beam was accelerated up to 360 keV and a maximum current of 80 mA was obtained on the rotating target. (LEW)
