H. Oguri et al., Development of a H- ion source for the high intensity proton linac at Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute, REV SCI INS, 71(2), 2000, pp. 975-977
A volume production type negative ion source has been designed and tested f
or the high intensity proton linear accelerator at Japan Atomic Energy Rese
arch Institute. The dimensions of the plasma chamber are 150 mm in diameter
and 200 mm in length. The beam extractor consists of four electrodes with
a single aperture of 8 mm in diameter. Negative ion current (density) of 40
mA (80 mA/cm(2)) was achieved with a duty factor of 5%. (C) 2000 American
