Contributed Oral Presentation

As the first demonstration ion source of the fourth generation, the FECR (First Fourth-Generation ECR Ion Source) has been developed and utilized for the production of highly charged ion beams since July 2024. It now serves as the primary injector ion source for the Low‑Energy intense‑highly‑charged ion Accelerator Facility (LEAF), which entered routine operation in 2025. To date, FECR has...

42. TELAMONES & PANDORA: New Perspectives of R&D on ECR Ion Sources at INFN-LNS

Luigi Celona (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare)

28/09/2026, 09:30

Contributed Oral Presentation

The evolution of ECR ion sources is driven by the demand for higher charge states, beam intensities and reliability, requiring advances in plasma physics, microwave engineering and superconducting technologies. To support these developments, INFN-LNS is building two research infrastructures: TELAMONES and PANDORA. TELAMONES will host an AISHA source operating at 18 and 21 GHz for beam...

20. Upgraded Injector Design Based on ECR Ion Sources for High Charge-State Ion Beam Production at GSI

Fabio Maimone (GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research)

28/09/2026, 10:00

Contributed Oral Presentation

To address the increasing demand from the facility and its user community for high-duty-cycle ion beams, the development of a continuous-wave (CW) linear accelerator (LINAC) is foreseen in the coming years. The corresponding injector is designed to deliver ion beams with mass to charge ratios up to 6 in CW operation and up to 8.5 in pulsed mode, with beam intensities exceeding those currently...
