  DPIS (Direct Plasma Injection Scheme) is one of the effective methods for high-intensity heavy ion beam acceleration. In DPIS, ions are extracted from laser-produced plasma at the entrance of an RFQ linac. The plasma generated by high power density laser irradiation consists of multiple charge state ions, therefore, the ions with different charge states are simultaneously injected into an RFQ. In an RFQ, ions whose charge state is comparable with that of ions desired for acceleration are captured by RF bucket. To prevent the unneeded ions from being accelerated, we investigated the beam dynamics in an RFQ and performed the particle tracking simulation. The simulation result shows that the discontinuous transition of the synchronous phase inhibits the acceleration of the unneeded ions without significant loss of desired ions. To validate the designed cell parameter via oncoming beam test, we fabricated the new 4-rod RFQ vanes for carbon 5+ acceleration.

  Laser ion source can provide high brightness heavy ion beam. In the source, a plasma produced by a pulsed laser irradiation on a solid material drifts toward the extraction electrode. In the meantime, the plasma expands spatially and its flux density at the extraction point dramatically changes within a beam pulse. To stabilize the variation, we try to control the expanding plasma by applying pulsed magnetic field. So that we may achieve flat or tailored beam current profile. For this purpose, we are designing coils and pulsed circuit and these will be experimentally verified.

In March 2014, a Laser Ion Source (LIS) was commissioned which delivers high brightness low charge state heavy ions for the hadron accelerator complex in Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). Since then, the LIS has provided many heavy ion species successfully. The induced low charge state (mostly singly charged) beams are injected to the Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) where ions are then highly ionized to fit to the following accelerator's Q/M acceptance, like Au32+. Recently we upgraded the LIS to be able to provide two different beams into EBIS on a pulse-to-pulse basis . Now the LIS is simultaneously providing beams for both the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL). In the conference we present details of the LIS including effect of plasma confinement solenoid.
