TI - ECR3 Commissioning and Planning for C-14 Ion Beams at the Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator System J2 - Proc. of ECRIS2020, East Lansing, MI, USA, 28-30 September 2020 CY - East Lansing, MI, USA T2 - International Workshop on ECR Ion Sources T3 - 24 LA - english AB - The Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source ECR3* has recently been commissioned at the Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator System (ATLAS) at Argonne National Laboratory. While ECR3 can provide many of the stable ATLAS beams, its other intended purpose is the production of C-14 ion beams which were previously produced by a now-retired negative ion source. This paper will discuss the final installation and commissioning of the ion source as well as the preparations for running C-14. A stable C-13 ethylene gas was used as a surrogate to determine the expected level of N-14 contamination when running C-14 since they are inseparable at ATLAS. We were also able to confirm consumption rates and charge state efficiencies under different C-13 running conditions in order to optimize the upcoming C-14 beam production.
