Abstract: | Most of the developments over the last several years related to Pelletron accelerator are in the field of accelerator mass
spectrometry (AMS) and other low beam current applications with the exception of a very high DC electron recirculation Pelletron.
High precision AMS systems based on tandem Pelletrons from 500 kV to 5 MV terminal potential are now in use for routine high
precision AMS measurements. Their performance will be reported. In addition, there has been significant advancement in the
design of the multi-cathode SNICS source for the use of both gas and solid samples within a single source. The latest performance
of these sources will be discussed. New diagnostics is being developed for very low beam currents. The latest design of the
low current beam profile monitor (LCBPM) will also be presented. |
