High intensity, high charge state, various ion species and small emittance heavy ion beam is required for particle physics, medical uses, inertial fusion, and a simulator of space radiation. Direct Plasma Injection Scheme (DPIS), the way to make laser abrasion plasma developed in the past several years, is used for Heavy Ion beam Accerelation. High density plasma with an initial drift velocity will fly to the entrance of the Radio Frequency Quadropole (RFQ) LINAC; ions will be separated from plasma via high voltage and injected it to RFQ LINAC directly. After RFQ LINAC, ions accepted to the RF buckets are accelerated to a current of over 10mA. Until now, we tried a carbon target using the partial modulation rod of the RFQ LINAC, and succeeded in accelerating carbon⁴⁺, carbon⁵⁺, and carbon⁶⁺ non-bunched beam.* In this instance, we succeeded in commissioning of new full modulation RFQ rod designed for the charge mass ratio(q/A) 1/6. We tested the acceleration of carbon⁴⁺, and it could be catched by the RF bucket and accelerated. After this, we'll try accelerating carbon²⁺ (q/A=1/6) for demonstrating the feasibility of the Ag¹⁵⁺ ion accelerating. * T. Kanesue, M. Okamura, K. Kondo, J. Tamura, H. Kashiwagi, Z.
