    Kinetic Modeling of Particle Dynamics in H- Negative Ion Sources - Recent progress and Open Questions -

    A. Hatayama

    Graduate School of Science and Technology, Keio University, 3-14-1 Hiyoshi, Kohoku-ku, Yokohama 223-8522, Japan

    Progress in the kinetic modeling of particle dynamics in H- negative ion source plasmas and their

    comparisons with experiments are reviewed, and discussed with some new results. Main focuses are placed on the following two topics, which are important for the research and development of large negative ion sources and high power H- ion beams; i) Effects of non-equilibrium features of EEDF (electron energy distribution function) on H- production, ii) Extraction physics of H- ions and beam optics.

    For the 1st topic, the role of the non-equilibrium and high energy component of the EEDF on the dissociation of H2 molecule and the resultant H- production in Cs-seeded H- source is discussed on the basis of the kinetic modeling and its comparison with experiments. As for the 2nd topic, extraction mechanism/process of surface produced H- ions is still unclear and we address our attention to the following open questions;

    i) What is the key controlling knob for the plasma meniscus (i.e. emitting surface of H- ions surrounding the extraction aperture) ?

    ii) Where do extracted H- ions come from? Are they directly from the surface or via bulk plasma region?

    iii) How and where beam halo component is produced? Review and discussion on these open questions will be given with the recent results by analytic and 2D/3D PIC (Particle in Cell) modeling, and their comparisons with experiments.

    Compared to in flight facilities, ISOL facilities can in principle produce significantly higher radioactive ion

    beam intensities. On the other hand, they have to cope with delays for the release and ionization, which make the production of short-lived isotopes ion beams of reactive and refractory elements particularly difficult. Many efforts are focused on extending the capabilities of ISOL facilities to those challenging beams. In this context, the development of carbon beams is triggering interest [1-3]: despite its refractory nature, radioactive carbon beams can be produced from molecules (CO or CO2), which can subsequently be broken up and multi-ionized to the required charge state in charge breeders or ECR sources.

    This contribution shall present results of experiments conducted at LPSC with the Phoenix charge breeder and at GANIL with the Nanogan ECR ion source for the ionization of carbon beam in the frame of the ENSAR and EMILIE projects. Carbon is to date the lightest condensable element charge bred with an ECR ion source. Charge breeding efficiencies will be compared with those obtained using Nanogan ECRIS and charge breeding times will be presented as well.

    Recent Trends in Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Sources: Enhancement of Ionization Efficiency and Spectroscopic Resolution

    Resonant laser ionization is a highly efficient and extremely selective method for production of radioactive ion beams (RIBs). Today, the technique is applied as resonance ionization laser ion sources (RILIS) in nearly all RIB facilities worldwide, efficiently providing beams of shortest-lived, low yield isotopes and suppressing dominant isobaric contaminations. Using widely tunable, high power and high-repetition rate pulsed titanium-sapphire lasers aside of the traditional dye laser systems it is possible to cover the majority of the periodic table of elements with ionization yields up to 10% and beyond [1].

    To maximize the ionization efficiency for each element, a multi-step resonant excitation scheme with sufficient laser power to reach saturation in each step is preferred. Applying second, third and fourth harmonic generation the range of accessible optical transitions is greatly increased towards the blue and ultraviolet spectral range. Nevertheless, it is necessary to perform extensive spectroscopy work to identify suitable excitation schemes via high lying levels and auto-ionizing states [2], of which only few are known in literature. Alternatively, high lying Rydberg states are used, which are subsequently ionized by either atom-atom collisions, absorption of black-body photons, electric fields or an additional laser photon. RILIS in-source spectroscopy shows significantly different excitation pathways involving Rydberg spectra, depending on the electric field strength at the location of ionization, which is studied by involving low voltage quadrupole mass analyzers versus high acceleration potential magnetic sector field mass separators. Spectroscopic results will be presented for the elements Ytterbium and Palladium.

    Development of in-source spectroscopy is most easily performed on stable isotopes in off-line laboratories, saving precious on-line beam-time. Laser spectroscopic resolution is an issue of highest importance, being limited by the conditions in the hot ion source ionizer cavity, the corresponding Doppler broadening of the optical transitions and the line width of the lasers, altogether not falling below the order of a few GHz. Especially for higher mass isotopes, this value already allows for relevant atomic physics studies at online RIB facilities, resolving hyperfine structures and isotopic shifts.

    A further desirable reduction of the experimental line width is possible by corresponding optimization of the lasers, i.e. by installing multiple etalons, by selection of a single longitudinal laser mode in a travelling wave ring resonator or by injection locking with a narrow-bandwidth continuous wave laser. Doppler-free in-source spectroscopy is envisaged as ultimate goal, which could provide results complementary to collinear laser spectroscopy.

    The Role of Space Charge Compensation for Ion Beam Extraction and Ion Beam Transport

    Peter Spädtke

    Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung mbH : GSI, Darmstadt, Germany Corresponding Author: P.Spädtke e-mail address: [email protected]

    Depending on the specific type of ion source, the ion beam is extracted either from an electrode surface, or from a plasma. There is always an interface between the (almost) space charge compensated ion source plasma, and the extraction region in which the full space charge is influencing the ion beam itself. After extraction, the ion beam is to be transported towards an accelerating structure in most cases. For lower intensities, this transport can be done without space charge compensation. However, if space charge is not negligible, the positive charge of the positive ion beam will attract electrons, which will compensate the space charge, at least partially. The final degree of space charge compensation will depend on different properties, like the ratio of generation rate of secondary particles and it’s loss rate, or the fact whether the ion beam is pulsed or continuous. In sections of the beam line, where the ion beam is drifting, a pure electrostatic plasma will develop, whereas in magnetic elements, these space charge compensating electrons become magnetized. The transport section can become a summary of different plasma conditions with different properties. Different measurement tools to investigate the degree of space charge compensation will be described, as well as computational methods for the simulation of ion beams with partial space charge compensation.

    Space-Charge Compensation Measurements in Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source Low Energy Beam Transport Lines with a Retarding Field Analyzer.

    With the dramatic performance increase of state-of-the art electron cyclotron resonance ion sources (ECRIS)

    and the demand for ever more intense beams for next generation heavy ion and rare isotope facilities like the facility for rare isotope beams (FRIB), space charge and space charge compensation have become important factors for realistic beam simulations and accelerator design. In the case of FRIB, 560 eµA of U33+ and U34+ (or 16.5 pµA) must be produced by the ECR ion source to deliver 400kW of uranium beam power to the production target. Consequently, the total extracted and transported beam current before charge state selection will be between 5-10 emA.

    In this paper we describe the first systematic measurement of beam neutralization in the ECR low energy transport line with a retarding field analyzer (RFA), which can be used to measure the potential of the beam. By comparing with the theoretical potential of an uncompensated beam, we obtain a value for the space charge compensation. Measurements for ion beams extracted from the two ECRIS injectors at the Coupled Cyclotron Facility at the NSCL (SuSI and Artemis A) are shown. Expected trends for the space charge compensation levels such as increase with residual gas pressure, beam current, and beam density could be observed. However, the overall levels of neutralization are consistently low (< 60 %). The results and the processes involved for neutralizing ion beams are discussed for conditions typical for ECR injector beam lines. The results are compared to the simple theoretical beam plasma model by Gabovich et al. [1], as well as simulations.

    This paper presents the latest results of high current proton beam production at SMIS 37 facility at the Institute of Applied Physics (IAP RAS). In this experimental setup the plasma is created and the electrons are heated by 37.5 GHz gyrotron radiation with power up to 100 kW in a simple mirror trap fulfilling the ECR condition. High microwave power and frequency allow sustaining higher density hydrogen plasma (ne up to 2·1013 cm-3) in comparison to conventional ECRIS’s or microwave sources. The low ion temperature, on the order of a few eV, is beneficial to produce proton beams with low emittance.

    Latest experiments at SMIS 37 were performed using a single-aperture two-electrode extraction system. Various diameters of plasma electrode apertures i.e. 5 mm, 7 mm, 10 mm, were tested yielding proton beams with currents from 100 to 450 mA at high voltages below 45 kV. The maximum beam current density was measured to be 700 mA/cm2. A possibility of further improvement through the development of an advanced extraction system is discussed.

    Recent Performance of the SNS H- Ion Source and Low-Energy Beam Transport System

    Recent measurements of the H- beam current show that SNS is injecting about 55 mA into the RFQ compared

    to ~45 mA in 2010. Since 2010, the H- beam exiting the RFQ dropped from ~40 mA to ~34 mA, which is still sufficient for 1 MW of beam power. The RF team is in the process of retuning the RFQ to restore the apparently degraded transmission. The level of success in restoring the ~40 mA RFQ output current, desired for 1.4 MW beam power, will be discussed in Chiba.

    To minimize the impact of the RFQ degradation, the service cycle of the best performing source was extended to 6 weeks. The only degradation were fluctuations in the electron dump voltage towards the end of some service cycles. The problem is being investigated to further extend the source service cycles.

    In addition we will report on several efforts to increase the performance of our H- sources as well as to decrease the performance variations from source to source and from service cycle to service cycle.

    After a 2012 thermal failure of the test electrostatic low-energy beam transport system, it was reengineered to double its heat sinking and equipped with a thermocouple that monitors the temperature of the ground electrode between the two Einzel lenses. The recorded data show that emissions from the source at high voltage dominate the heat load. Emissions from the partly Cs-covered first lens cause the temperature to peak many hours after starting up. On rare occasions the temperature can also peak due to corona discharges between one of the lenses and the center ground.

    The ITER project requires additional heating provided by two injectors of neutral beams resulting from the

    neutralization of accelerated negative ions. To study and optimise negative ion production, the SPIDER test facility (particle energy 100keV; beam current 50A) is under construction in Padova, with the aim of testing beam characteristics and to verify the source proper operation. The SPIDER beam will be characterised by the instrumented calorimeter STRIKE, whose main components are one-directional carbon fibre carbon composite tiles. Some prototype tiles have been employed as a small-scale version (mini-STRIKE) of the entire system to investigate the features of the beam of the device BATMAN at IPP-Garching.

    The present contribution gives a description of the mini-STRIKE, which is made of two tiles arranged in the vertical direction and exposed perpendicularly to the beam in order to characterise the vertical beam profile. The measurement position is about 1m from the accelerator, where the beamlets composing the beam are largely overlapping. To provide local measurements of the beam features, in front of the tiles an actively cooled copper mask was located provided with some apertures. Calorimetry of the mask was performed, whereas the temperature map on the rear side of the tiles was measured by a thermal camera and compared to some local thermocouple measurements. Indications on the beam are also provided by a thermocouple installed on the mask. The first results of the investigation of the BATMAN beam are described in various operating conditions. The data analysis is presented, including the dependence of the beam features on plasma grid voltage, extraction voltage, radiofrequency power and filling pressure.

    Response of Cs-seeded hydrogen ionic plasmas to bias and extraction electrostatic fields is reported. The

    ionic plasmas are measured with a Langmuir probe, cavity ring down measurement, CCD Hα imaging and surface wave probe. Beam extraction field is applied with the polarity extracting negative and positive ions. As we have reported, decrease of H- ions and increase of electrons densities are observed during the extraction of negative ions, and the influence of the extraction field expands whole the extraction region. On the other hand, no influence of electrostatic field is shown in the case of positive-ion extraction. This characteristic indicates the Debye length is different which particle contributes the electrostatic shielding. Despite the ionic plasma involves quite low electron density (less than ~1%), the result suggests electrons contribute to the shielding in the positive-ion extraction. To confirm the shielding is due to electrons, the bias potential from 0 to -10 V is applied to the PG; the bias electric field is the same direction of the extraction field. As decreasing the bias potential lower, the electron density and H- density is almost constant in the extraction region increases, though the electrostatic field has the direction to repel the negative charges. In the extraction region, electrons are strongly magnetized, while positive ions have larger diffusivity toward the PG. Ambipolar diffusion dominated with positive ions is possible to explain the phenomena above. Distribution of plasma potential and of positive and negative saturation currents will be also discussed.

    A reduction structure of H− ions at the extraction region in hydrogen negative ion source has been obtained by

    Hα imaging spectroscopy. The diagnostic system consists of an aspherical lens, optical filters, a fiber image conduit and a charge coupled device detector, that is installed on the 1/3-scaled hydrogen negative ion source in NIFS. The center of sight line is set parallel to the plasma grid (PG) surface, and the viewing angle has coverage from the magnetic filter flange to the PG surface.

    The H− ion density measured by a cavity ring-down spectroscopy [1] increases after Cs seeding caused by surface conversion process on a Cs covered PG surface. We find reduction of H− density during beam extraction, and same signal reduction appeared on the hydrogen Balmer-α (Hα) emission caused by the reduction of excited hydrogen (n = 3) population which in turn due to the decreasing mutual neutralization process between positive and negative hydrogen ions. We clearly find the reduction structure on Hα after Cs conditioning, and reduction area expand at optimal Cs condition. The absolute value of the Hα reduction is proportional to the reduction H− density in rich H− condition. Thus, the reduction image of Hα emission shows the extraction structure of H− ions that produced at the PG surface accumulate at the extraction region, and then it flow toward the PG apertures.

    Overview of Prof. Zorin’s Work on Development of ECR Ion Sources with High Frequency Gyrotron Plasma Heating (Invited)

    Vadim Skalyga

    Institute of Applied Physics, RAS, 46 Ul`yanova st., 603950 Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Federation

    It is well known that the first idea of high frequency gyrotrons using for plasma heating in ECR ion sources

    belongs to the inventor of ECRIS Richard Geller. On the basis of his frequency scaling law he had predicted a great benefit of high frequency and powerful gyrotron radiation usage for multicharged ion beams production. Nowadays state-of-the-art ECRISes use such microwave sources for plasma heating.

    In 1989 Vladimir Zorin as an ambitious experimental plasma physicist decided to try himself in a new field of ECR ions sources. And immediately he decided to work around the most ambitious Geller’s idea of gyrotron plasma heating in ECRIS. In 1991 he initiated new investigations in the Institute of Applied Physics of Russian Academy of Sciences (Nizhny Novgorod) of ECR discharge stimulated by gyrotron radiation at 37.5 GHZ frequency with pulsed power up to 130 kW. Pretty fast the team led by Vladimir noticed that results which had been obtained experimentally did not follow Geller’s predictions. Features of used microwave radiation pushed his investigations towards absolutely unique region of plasma parameters, not typical for conventional ECRIS, forming a new branch in ECR ion sources development. Working on ECR sources over last 20 years he achieved a great number of absolutely new and interesting results which find their application nowadays.

    The most valuable and fundamental Vladimir’s result related to observing and investigation of a new plasma confinement regime in magnetic trap of an ECR ion source. This regime was called quasi-gasdynamic confinement. It is characterized by extremely high plasma density (>1013 cm-3) and very high rate of plasma losses from a trap (5-25 µs) determined by ion sound velocity. Experimentally reached plasma density was high enough to compensate short plasma lifetime and make multicharged ion generation possible. Combination of high density and low lifetime brings to pretty high values of plasma flux from a trap, thus providing possibility of ultra-high current beams production (more than 100 mA). On the basis of those experiments a new type of ECR ion sources was developed. Such quasi-gasdynamic ECRISes are now able to produce ion beams with moderate ion charge with current higher than 400 mA with emittance below 1 pi mm mrad.

    Development of a new type of EUV light sources with 13.5 nm wavelength for high definition lithography was another application of such dense ECR plasmas under Vladimir’s supervision. He started this work with his collogues in 1996; results obtained at that time are being considered as very perspective and hit the second wave of interest at present time.

    A lot of work on ECRIS plasma numerical modeling was done under Vladimir’s supervision as well. A few codes for discharge evolution modeling were created and found a number of important applications in this field. One of the last results related to interpretation and investigation of Preglow effect in ECRIS which considered perspective for short-pulsed ion beams production.

    Ion Guiding with Tapered Dielectric Capillaries for Neutron Generator Applications*

    Amy Sy, Qing Ji, Bernhard A. Ludewigt, and Thomas Schenkel Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, CA USA

    Corresponding Author: Qing Ji, e-mail address: [email protected]

    We report on the use of tapered dielectric capillaries for the passive focusing of deuterium ion beams for neutron generator applications. 40 keV D+/D2+ ions are extracted from a novel Penning-type ion source [1] and transmitted through a tapered Pyrex capillary to neutron production targets of several different materials. The transmitted currents on target and relative neutron yields were measured to determine the degree of beam compression achieved due to the ion guiding effect. Since measurements of the target currents indicate significant electron current contributions that can distort the ion current measurements and the resultant derived transmission efficiencies and beam compression factors, neutron yield measurements from the D-D fusion reaction provide an additional means to determine the ion current transmitted through the tapered dielectric capillary. Relative neutron yield measurements from the various target materials indicate beam compression and the stable transmission of 5 µA of deuterium ion current, orders of magnitude higher than the pA/nA ion currents typically utilized in similar experiments. Relative neutron yield measurements also indicate significant neutron production from the tapered Pyrex tube itself, with the Pyrex tube contributing to as much as 40% of the measured neutron yield. These results are promising for the further extension of this ion guiding method to higher beam currents for higher neutron yields. Passive focusing methods are attractive for compact and simple operation of a neutron generator for neutron-based imaging methods, such as Associated Particle Imaging, where small ion beam spot sizes enable higher imaging resolution.

    The negative hydrogen ion source for the neutral beam system for ITER has to deliver up to 60 A of D¯ ions for up to one hour pulses with an accelerated current density of 200 A/m2. In order to limit the power loads and ion losses in the accelerator, the source must be operated at a pressure of 0.3 Pa at maximum and the amount of co-extracted electrons must not exceed the amount of extracted negative ions. As presently these parameters have not yet been achieved simultaneously, also due to a lack of adequate test facilities, the European ITER domestic agency F4E has defined an R&D roadmap for the construction of the neutral beam heating systems.

    An important step herein is the new test facility ELISE (Extraction from a Large Ion Source Experiment) for a large-scale extraction from a half-size ITER RF source which was constructed in the last years at IPP Garching and is now operational. ELISE allows gaining an early experience of the performance and operation of large RF driven sources (1x1 m2 with an extraction area of 0.1 m2 using 640 apertures with 14 mm in diameter) for negative hydrogen ions and will give an important input for the design of the Neutral Beam Test Facility PRIMA in Padova and the ITER NBI systems (heating beams and diagnostic beam, the latter being built by India ).

    The main issues that will be addressed by ELISE are (1) the influence of the magnetic filter field on the extracted current densities of ions and electrons, and (2) the homogeneity of the plasma and, most important, the beam. ELISE has the aim at the demonstration of an ion beam at the required parameters within 2 years of operation which started in November 2012.

    The ISIS pulsed spallation neutron and muon facility at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in the UK uses a Penning surface plasma negative hydrogen ion source. Upgrade options for the ISIS accelerator system demand a higher current, lower emittance beam with longer pulse lengths from the injector. The Front End Test Stand (FETS) is being constructed at RAL to meet the upgrade requirements using a modified ISIS ion source. A new high duty cycle pulsed extraction power supply has been commissioned1 for the ion source and the 3 MeV Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) has been delivered.

    Simultaneously, a Vessel for Extraction and Source Plasma Analyses2 (VESPA) is under construction in a new laboratory at RAL. The VESPA will allow direct line of sight into the plasma to measure its properties by optical spectroscopy, as well as measurements of the extracted beam before it suffers emittance blow-up and collimation. Improved understanding of the plasma and extraction characteristics will allow a radical overhaul of the transport optics, potentially yielding a simpler source configuration with greater output and lifetime.

    This paper outlines the present performance of FETS, the beam measurements taken on the proof-of-principle VESPA Mk 1 and the installation progress of the VESPA Mk 2. References

    Extracted H Ion Current Enhancement due to Cesium Seeding at Different Plasma Grid Bias

    While the enhancement in extracted current due to addition of caesium into the ion source at plasma grid bias lower than the plasma potential is described as being due to direct production of negative ions on caesiated surfaces by ion or atom impact, an enhancement observed at plasma grid bias voltages higher that the plasma potential, when negative ions should not be able to leave the plasma grid, remains unexplained. This paper discusses the possibility that there is an enhancement of volume production due to gettering of atomic hydrogen by the caesium deposited on the walls which reduces the negative ion destruction by associative and non-associative detachment. Such an enhancement would take place for all plasma grid bias voltages. Furthermore at plasma grid bias voltages higher than the plasma potential there is flow of the negative ions from the bulk plasma. Other possible processes such as negative ions originating from the other source walls and charge exchange will be considered.

    CERN’s Linac4 45 kV H- ion sources prototypes are installed at a dedicated ion source test stand and in the Linac4 tunnel. The operation of the pulsed hydrogen injection, RF sustained plasma and pulsed high voltages are described. The first experimental results of two prototypes relying on 2MHz RF- plasma heating are presented. Ion sources based on two H- production mechanisms were tested; H- extracted from the plasma volume and generated on a cesiated molybdenum surface. The plasma is ignited via capacitive coupling, and sustained by inductive coupling. Measurements of the average RF-coupling, optical emission spectroscopy and photometry of the plasma have been performed, allowing comparison between the two different production mechanisms. The light emitted from the plasma is collected by viewports pointing to the plasma chamber wall in the middle of the RF solenoid and to the plasma chamber axis. The uncesiated source, has produced H- beams of 16-22 mA which has successfully been used for the commissioning of the LEBT, RFQ and chopper of Linac4.

In this paper, the experimental results of the plasma chamber made of stainless-steel, instead of copper used in the prototype source, will be presented. The stainless-steel was adopted in order to save the weight, which was necessary to install the integrated plasma chamber from the end-plate to the plasma electrode by hands.

    Negative Ion Source by Particle-based Model

    The path toward a full understanding of electron and negative ion transport and extraction pass trough the

    inclusion of the entire expansion region of the source and the simulation of all the entire multi-aperture system. In fact, the electron transport is related to ExB drift induced by the interaction of a diamagnetic flux with lateral walls [1] determining also the in-homogeneity plasma condition at the different extraction apertures. In a purely collision-less sheath there is no mechanism to redistribute the energy in parallel and in perpendicular directions and therefore the plasma bulk boundary values of flow velocities are very important. Moreover, this system will allow avoiding the source of inconsistency present in the single aperture extraction models (initial condition and injection from the source plane) and could allow better quantitative with the measured extracted currents and less speculative conclusions. Finally, such a model would be able to quantify the positive ion flux towards PG, a very important parameter determining the negative ion production on the surface by ionic conversion [2,3], the depth of the potential well and then the extraction probability of surface-produced negative ion [4].

    A negative-ion based injector of a hydrogen neutral beam with the energy of atoms 500-1000 keV, power up

    to 5 MW and pulse duration 100-1000 s is being developed in the Budker Institute, Novosibirsk. In this injector, in contrast to commonly used arrangement, formation of negative ion beam and its acceleration to full energy are spatially separated. The 120 KeV negative ion source is attached to the Low Energy Beam Transport Line (LEBT), which comprises deflection magnets, vacuum pumps and dumps for the undesirable beam contaminants and back-streaming particles. The magnets provide the 120 keV beam transport and focusing onto the entrance of an accelerator, which post-accelerates the negative ions to full energy. A plasma target will be used for negative ion beam neutralization, while the energy of un-neutralized ions will be recovered by the electrostatic energy recuperators. In the paper, we discuss the main design features of the ion source, the LEBT and the post-accelerator and results of the beam transport simulations.

    Development of a Novel RF Negative Hydrogen Ion Source in Conically Converging Configuration

    A novel RF negative hydrogen ion source in a conically converging configuration is developed to improve

    negative hydrogen beam currents by modifying the transformer-coupled plasma H- ion source at Seoul National University [1]. Recently efficient negative ion production via higher electron temperature at the plasma generation region was reported when the length of the cylindrical chamber was reduced, which is thought to be caused by the reduction of effective plasma size [2]. In this study, further increase of negative ion generation is predicted with the conically converging configuration of the discharge chamber in which the chamber diameter decreases as approaching to the extraction region away from the planar RF antenna while maintaining the multi-cusp magnetic field. In this configuration, the concentration of plasma and neutral particles is expected to be compressed into the extraction region and the reduced diameter near the extraction region can accommodate stronger filter field easily, providing more excited molecules and low-temperature electrons near the extraction region for efficient formation of H- ion via dissociative attachment process. Detailed design and test results of this new source will be presented.

    The paper proposes a new model of ion confinement in ECRIS, which can be easily generalized to any

    magnetic configuration characterized by closed magnetic surfaces. Traditionally, ion confinement in B-min

    configurations is ascribed to a negative potential dip due to superhot electrons, adiabatically confined by the

    magneto-static field. However, when performing simulations with electrons moving in the trap and subject to

    ECR-heating, one founds that high energy electrons populate just a thin slab overlapping the ECR layer. Outside

    the layer, the electron density drops down of more than one order of magnitude. Electrons are retained into the

    plasmoid due to the acceleration at the ECR layer and due to the effect of the ponderomotive potential. Ions,

    instead, diffuse across the electron layer due to their high collisionality. This is the proper physical condition to

    establish a double-layer (DL) configuration which self-consistently originates a potential barrier; this “barrier”

    confines the ions inside the plasma core surrounded by the ECR surface. The paper will describe the

    consequences of spatial DL-potential perturbations on the electron heating and ion beam formation dynamics.

    A simple table-size ECR plasma generator operates in ATOMKI without axial magnetic trap and without any

    particle extraction tool. Radial plasma confinement is ensured by a NdFeB hexapole. The energizing radiofrequency (RF) can be varied between 6-18 GHz. The Table-ECRIS is a simplified version of the 14 GHz ATOMKI-ECRIS. Some selected plasma diagnostics experiments are planned to be performed at this device before installing the measurement setting at the “big” ECRIS.

    Recently, the plasma generator has been operated in pulsed RF mode in order to investigate the time evolution of the ECR plasma in two different ways. (1) The visible light radiation emitted by the plasma was investigated by the frames of a fast camera images with 1 msec temporal resolution. Since the visible light photographs are in strong correlation with the two dimensional spatial distribution of the cold electron components of the plasma it can be important to understand better the transient processes just after the breakdown and just after the glow. (2) The time-resolved ion current on a specially shaped biased electrode was measured simultaneously in order to compare it with the visible light photographs. The response of the plasma was detected by changing some external setting parameters (gas pressure and microwave power).

    The results already obtained and later to be obtained from these experiments can be useful to understand the elementary processes taking place in the plasma generator and in ECR-traps with B-minimum geometry, as well.

    Hot cathode ion sources with electron oscillations in electrostatic field (Bayard-Alpert ion sources) are widely

    used for generation of ion beams in neutron-generating tubes utilized T(D,n)4H or D(D,n)3He reactions. A disadvantage of such sources is worst mass content of the ion beam: a beam consist mostly on molecular hydrogen ions H2+, a fraction of monoatomic ions H+ is about 6%. Increase of the content of monoatomic ions would sufficiently increase neutron yield with constant load of neutron-generating target and high-voltage supply system.
