Investigation of a self-magnetically insulated Bθ-diode
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Abstract
An ion diode, where the insulating magnetic Bθ-field is produced by the diode current itself, has been investigated. Using a novel Thomson-parabola spectrometer that is capable of detecting up to 41 beam traces at a single shot and a carbon activation diagnostic the ion beam has been analyzed. The diode, operating at “KALIF”, delivers ion beams of 750 kA at energies of about 0·7 MeV. The focusing version of the diode shows a focus size of 1 cm2, the beam is neutralized to 98–99%, the proton content is about 60%.
