  We generalize the classical single-species Child-Langmuir Law to analyze multi-species beams from ECR ion sources. The formulation assumes the relative weight of each species in the extracted beam is known. We apply the results to charge state distribution data from Artemis- and Venus-type sources at the NSCL and LBNL respectively. The total measured beam current is close to the maximum current predicted by the multi-species Child Langmuir law in each case, which indicates that beam extraction occurs close to space-charge-limited flow conditions. Prospects for application of the results and further studies on the topic are outlined.

  Beams from ECR ion sources have 3-fold transverse rotational symmetry induced by the ECR sextupole. The symmetry imposes equality constraints among transverse beam moments, which can be derived using a theoretical framework we developed. Since the constraints are solely a consequence of the rotational symmetry of external fields, they hold for a multi-species beam with arbitrary composition and space charge intensity. These constraints provide a new tool to analyze phase space properties of ECR beams and their impact on low-energy transport. We prove that, regardless of their triangulated spatial density profile, beams with 3-fold rotational symmetry have the same RMS emittance and Twiss parameters along any transverse direction. These counter-intuitive results are applied to the FRIB Front End to show how symmetry arguments challenge long-standing assumptions and bring clarity to the beam dynamics.
