An EBIS for charge state breeding in the SPES project

The ‘charge state breeder’, BRIC (breeding ion charge) is in construction at the INFN section of Bari (Italy). It is based on EBIS scheme and it is designed to accept radioactive ion beam (RIB) with charge state +1 in a slow injection mode. This experiment can be considered as a first step towards the design and construction of a charge breeder for the SPES project. The new feature of BRIC, with respect to the classical EBIS, is given by the insertion, in the ion chamber, of a rf-quadrupole aiming at filtering the unwanted masses and then making a more efficient containment of the wanted ions. In this paper, the breeder design, the simulation results of the electron and ion beam propagation and the construction problems of the device will be reported.     

LBNL14GHz离子源AECR-U的最新进展

A radial sputter probe has been developed for the AECR-U as an additional method of producing metal ion beams.Negative voltage is applied to the probe to incite collisions with target atoms,thereby sputtering material into the plasma.The sputter probe is positioned through one of the 6 radial access slots between the permanent hexapole structure of the AECR-U.The probe position can be varied with respect to the inner edge of the hexapole magnet structure.Charge state distributions and peak beam intensities at bias voltages up to-5kV were obtained for gold samples at varying distances of the probe with respect to the plasma.For high charge states production the radial position with respect to the plasma was more sensitive than for the medium and lower charge states.For high charge state ion production the probe was optimized at a distance of 0.6cm inside the chamber wall(4.1cm from the center of the chamber).Stable beams with peak intensities of up to 28eμA of Au~(24 ) and 1.42eμA of Au~(41 ) have been produced using the sputter probe technique. In addition,a solid state circuit under development by Scientific Solutions,Inc which provides a bandwidth up to 100MHz was used to drive the 14GHz klystron amplifier for the LBNL AECR-U ion source.Various broadband and discrete heating modes were tested and the results for high charge state ion production were compared with single frequency heating.     

Multiple ionization of argon in coincidence with projectile ions in 60–120 MeV Si q+-Ar collisions

A projectile ion-recoil ion coincidence technique has been employed to study the multiple ionization and the charge transfer processes in collisions of 60–120 MeV Si ^q+ (q = 4−14) ions with neutral argon atoms. The relative contribution of different ionization channels, namely; direct ionization, electron capture and electron loss leading to the production of slow moving multiply charged argon recoil ions have been investigated. The data reported on the present collision system result from a direct measurement in the considered impact energy for the first time. The total ionization cross-sections for the recoil ions are shown to scale as q ^1.7/E _p ^0.5 , where E _p is the energy in MeV of the projectile and q its charge state. The recoil fractions for the cases of total- and direct ionizations are found to decrease with increasing recoil charge state j. The total ionization fractions of the recoils are seen to depend on q and to show the presence of a ‘shell-effect’ of the target. Further, the fractions are found to vary as 1/j ² upto j = 8+. The average recoil charge state 〈j〉 increases slowly with q and with the number of lost or captured electrons from or into the projectile respectively. The projectile charge changing cross-sections σ _qq′ are found to decrease with increasing q for loss ionization and to increase with q for direct-and capture ionization processes respectively. The physics behind various scaling rules that are found to follow our data for different ionization processes is reviewed and discussed.     

Relative Distribution of Au48 ～ Au52 in Au Plasma by Ionization Dynamics

The present work proposes a theoretical method called ionization dynamics to derive the ionic charge state distribution. Using relativistic quantum mechanics to calculate the energy level lifetime and average ionic lifetime of each ion, the first-order ionization rate constant can be obtained. Based on these data, from the solution of differential equations for consecutive-irreversible ionization reactions, one will be able to derive the ionic charge state distribution.The calculated average positive charge 49.24 of Au48 ～ Au52 and their relative distribution are in good agreement with the results of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.     

Guided transmission of oxygen ions through Al2O3 nanocapillaries

The transmissions of oxygen ions through Al2O3 nanocapillaries each 50 nm in diameter and 10 μm in length at a series of different tilt angles are measured,where the ions with energies ranging from 10 to 60 keV and charge states from 1 up to 6 are involved.The angular distribution and the transmission yields of transported ions are investigated.Our results indicate both the existence of a guiding effect when ions pass through the capillary and a significant dependence of the ion transmission on the energy and the charge state of the ions.The guiding effects are observed to be enhanced at lower projectile energies and higher charge states.Meanwhile,the results also exhibit that the transmission yields increase as the tilt angle decreases at a given energy and charge state.

ISAC基于ECR离子源的离子注入式电离

An ECR ion source for charge breeding of radioactive ions from the ISAC facility at TRIUMF has been set up at a test stand.It has been operated with different ion sources for the injection of singly charged ions and the efficiency,breeding time and emittance have been determined for several elements.A maximum efficiency of more than 6% for the breeding of Kr~(12 ) has been achieved so far.Additionally the charge exchange of Rb and Cs ions in the range of 10 to 23 with residual gas molecules in the transport beam lines has been investigated.The absolute values for the cross sections at 10—15 q keV agree with predictions extrapolated from lower charge states but the strong dependence on the ionization energy of the gas molecules could not be verified.     

Non-equilibrium plasma production by pulsed laser ablation of gold

A gold target has been irradiated with a Q-switched Nd:Yag laser having 1064?nm wavelength, 9?ns pulse width, 900?mJ maximum pulse energy and a maximum power density of the order of 10¹⁰?W/cm². The laser–target interaction produces a strong gold etching with production of a plasma in front of the target. The plasma contains neutrals and ions having a high charge state. Time-of-flight (TOF) measurements are presented for the analysis of the ion production and ion velocity. A cylindrical electrostatic deflection ion analyzer permits measurement of the yield of the emitted ions, their charge state and their ion energy distribution. Measurements indicate that the ion charge state reaches 6⁺ and 10⁺ at a laser fluence of 100?J/cm² and 160?J/cm², respectively. The maximum ion energy reaches about 2?keV and 8?keV at these low and high laser fluences, respectively. Experimental ion energy distributions are given as a function of the ion charge state. Obtained results indicate that electrical fields, produced in the plume, along the normal to the plane of the target surface, exist in the unstable plasma. The electrical fields induce ion acceleration away from the target with a final velocity dependent on the ion charge state. The ion velocity distributions follow a “shifted Maxwellian distribution”, which the authors have corrected for the Coulomb interactions occurring inside the plasma.

Ultrafast S1 and ICT state dynamics of a marine carotenoid probed by femtosecond one- and two-photon pump-probe spectroscopy

Ultrafast relaxation kinetics of fucoxanthin in polar and non-polar solvents have been studied by femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. Transient absorption associated with S₁ or intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) excited state has been observed following either one-photon excitation to the optically allowed S₂ state or two-photon excitation to the symmetry-forbidden S₁ state. The results suggest that the ICT state formed after excitation of fucoxanthin in a polar solvent is a distinct excited state from S₁.     

Multicomponent approximation for evaluation of nonequilibrium charge fractions of ions passing through thin films

A method is proposed to calculate the nonequilibrium charge fractions and mean charges of light ions, depending on film thickness. The calculated results are presented for three charge fractions of 0.75 MeV/nucleon B ion beam, passing through the organic film, and for four charge fractions of 2 MeV/nucleon Ne beam, passing through the carbon film. The dependence of energy loss on the initial charge of projectile Ne ions and target thickness in the nonequilibrium conditions is examined.

V替代Mn对La_(0.45)Ca_(0.55)MnO_3电荷有序相及自旋玻璃态的影响

用固相反应法制备了La0.45Ca0.55Mn1-xVxO3(x=0.00,0.10)多晶样品.通过X射线衍射谱、质量磁化强度-温度曲线、电子自旋共振谱,研究了V5+替代Mn3+/Mn4+对La0.45Ca0.55MnO3电荷有序相和自旋玻璃态的影响.实验结果表明,当x=0.10时,不仅母体的电荷有序相基本破坏,而且母体在40K左右出现的自旋玻璃态也被融化.电荷有序相被破坏的主要原因是用V5+替代Mn3+/Mn4+后,增加了Mn3+与Mn4+的比例,使铁磁双交换作用优于反铁磁超交换作用;自旋玻璃态的融化是由于V替代Mn后破坏了反铁磁背景下有少量铁磁成分的自旋玻璃态的形成条件.     

Consecutive reversible ionization-recombination reactions and ionic charge state distribution of Au plasma

The ionic charge state distribution is an important diagnostics parameter for laser in-ertia confinement fusion (LICF). It is usually obtained by solving Saha equation or using some other models, such as local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE), corona equilibrium (CE), collision-radiation (CR) and average atom (AA); however, these methods are rather limited for high-Z element plasma. The theory of entropy fluctuation is also a pos-sible method[1]. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (…
