Status Report On A Dc 130 Ma, 75 Kev Proton Injector (Invited)
REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS(1998)
Abstract
A 110 mA, 75 keV de proton injector is being developed at Los Alamos. A microwave proton source is coupled to a two solenoid, space-charge neutralized, low-energy beam transport (LEBT) system. The ion source produces 110 mA proton current at 75 keV using 600-800 W of 2.45 GHz discharge power. Typical proton fraction is 85%-90% of the total extracted ion current, and the rms normalized beam emittance after transport through a prototype 2.1 m LEBT is 0.20 (pi mm mrad). Beam space-charge neutralization is measured to be >98% which enables the solenoid magnetic transport to successfully match the injector beam into a radio-frequency quadrupole. Beam simulations indicate small emittance growth in the proposed 2.8 m low-energy demonstration accelerator LEBT. The LEBT also contains beam diagnostics, steering, and a beam deflector for variable duty factor and accelerator fast protect functions. The injector beam availability status is also discussed.
