ATLAS beam properties: some implications for target making
Conference

OSTI ID:6670301
The expansion of the tandem-linac booster into the Argonne Tandem-Linac Accelerator System, ATLAS, is approximately 40% complete. When completed, the facility will provide beams of heavy ions from lithium to tin with energies eventually, to 25 MeV/amu. The existing facility continues to provide beams for the experimental program in nuclear and atomic physics during the construction phase. The booster system is capable of accelerating ions as heavy as selenium to energies of 10 MeV/amu for the lighter ions. The good beam quality provided by the linac means that multiple scattering, energy straggling, and target inhomogeneities are major factors in the resolution attainable in experiments. The beam properties that can be expected from ATLAS will be discussed and the present state of high resolution experiments will be reported.
