Pulsed plasma guns for intense ion beam injectors
Journal Article
·
· Rev. Sci. Instrum.; (United States)
Plasma guns designed to provide high-pulsed fluxes of ions for intense ion beam injectors are described. The guns use pulsed radial magnetic fields to accelerate ions longitudinally into magnetically insulated extraction gaps. Plasma was supplied using both spark sources and pulsed gas injection. In typical operation, a 1-..cap omega.. pulse of nitrogen ions with an ion flux equivalent to 50 A/cm/sup 2/ was produced. A variety of ions ranging in mass from protons to argon was investigated.
