MOOAMH01	Simulation Of The CERN GTS-LHC ECR Ion Source Extraction System With Lead And Argon Ion Beams	ion, extraction, linac, ion-source	23
	V. Toivanen, G. Bellodi, D. Küchler, A.M. Lombardi, R. Scrivens, J.T. Stafford-Haworth CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
	A comprehensive study of beam formation and beam transport has been initiated in order to improve the performance of the CERN heavy ion injector, Linac3. As part of this study, the ion beam extraction system of the CERN GTS-LHC 14.5 GHz Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source (ECRIS) has been modelled with the ion optical code IBSimu. The simulations predict self-consistently the triangular and hollow beam structures which are often observed experimentally with ECRIS ion beams. The model is used to investigate the performance of the current extraction system and provides a basis for possible future improvements. In addition, the extraction simulation provides a more realistic representation of the initial beam properties for the beam transport simulations, which aim to identify the performance bottle necks along the Linac3 low energy beam transport. The results of beam extraction simulations with Pb and Ar ion beams from the GTS-LHC will be presented and compared with experimental observations.

MOOAMH05	Combination of Two ECRIS Calculations: Plasma Electrons and Extracted Ions	electron, ion, plasma, emittance	38

	In strongly magnetized ECRIS plasmas collisions do not influence the path of the charged particle. Electrons and ions can move more freely only along the magnetic field line compared to the transverse direction. Extraction simulation requires that the trajectories of charged particles have to be traced through the plasma chamber. In previous simulations the particle density at the beginning of the trajectory deep inside the plasma has been unknown. Now the full 3D electron tracking within the plasma chamber has been combined with the generation of initial ion starting conditions including particle density for ion tracking. The TrapCAD code has been used to determine the electron spatial distribution in a certain energy window. The idea is that at the places where the electron reaches a specific energy, an ion trajectory can be started. The magnetic field has been modeled with OPERA. The computer code KOBRA3-INP has been used for ray tracing. First results will be discussed and compared with experimental experience. The number of affecting parameters on the operating conditions of the ion source may lead to a multi-dimensional optimization space for simulation.

MOPPH011	Development of Interface and Diagnostic System for ECR Ion Source At KBSI	diagnostics, ion, ion-source, ECR	61

	A 28 GHz superconducting ECR (electron cyclotron resonance) ion source was recently developed at KBSI (Korea Basic Science Institute) to produce the high current and high charge state ions. The condition of the ion beam extracted from the ion source should be analyzed by a diagnosis tool after accelerating and focusing process. For this, we developed an ion beam diagnostic system composed of a slit, a wire scanner, a view screen and a faraday cup. The interface of the diagnostic system was designed so as to achieve stable operation of the ECR ion source. The information obtained from the diagnostic system can be used as a reference in studies of the optimum beam conditions needed to adjust the extraction parameters. The details of the diagnostic system and initial test results will be reported.

WEOMMH04	Thermal Design of Refridgerated Hexapole 18 GHz ECRIS HIISI	plasma, electron, ECRIS, permanent-magnet	114
	T. Kalvas, H. A. Koivisto, K. Ranttila, O.A. Tarvainen JYFL, Jyväskylä, Finland
	A project is underway for constructing a new 18 GHz ECR ion source HIISI at University of Jyväskylä. An innovative plasma chamber structure with grooves at magnetic poles is being studied. This allows large chamber radius at the poles, which is relevant for the performance of the ion source while smaller radius between the poles makes space for chamber water cooling. The hexapole will be refridgerated to sub-zero temperatures to boost the coercivity and the remanence of the permanent magnet material. The hexapole structure is insulated from high temperature solenoid coils and plasma chamber by vacuum. The thermal design of the structure has been made using a thermal diffusion code taking in account radiative, conductive and convective heat transfer processes. The heat flux from plasma has been estimated using electron trajectory simulations with sensitivity analysis on the electron energy distribution. The electron simulations are verified by comparing to experimental data from 14 GHz ECR. The electron and thermodynamic simulation efforts are presented together with an analysis of the H-field vs. coersivity in the permanent magnets.
