| Abstract | The high current, high charge-state ion beam which can be extracted from a laser produced plasma is well suited, after initial acceleration, for injection into synchrotrons. At CERN, the production of a heavy ion beam using such a source is studied. A 60 mA pulse of a mixture of high charge state tantalum or lead ions of 5 ms duration has been extracted at 59 kV. The resulting beam emittance and energy spread were measured. A Low Energy Beam Transport system (LEBT) consisting of two pulsed solenoids is used to match the beam to a four-rod Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ). Preliminary results are given for the acceleration of the beam by an RFQ, designed for the acceleration of 10 mA of Ta16+ to an energy of 100 keV/u. |
