Sudhirsinh Vala (Institute for Plasma Research)9/18/24, 9:00 AMMC6: Applications and DiagnosticsOral Presentation
The Institute for Plasma Research has set up a 14-MeV neutron generator facility. The stability, quality, and repeatability of the D⁺ ion beam are critical parameters for ensuring the reliable operation of the neutron generator. Hence, a 2.45 GHz ECR ion source has been installed to produce the deuterium beam. The primary D beam characteristics are assessed by varying extraction voltage,...

ShiXiang Peng (Peking University)9/18/24, 9:30 AMMC6: Applications and DiagnosticsOral Presentation
Recently, Accelerator Based Radiation Therapy (ABRT) facilities for cancer treatment, that includes ion therapy and BNCT, have been bloomed up rapidly and is being established as a future modality to start a new era of in-hospital facilities around the world. A high current, small emittance, easy maintenance, long lifetime, high stability and reliability ion source is crucially important for...

Gerard Rodrigues (Inter-University Accelerator Centre)9/18/24, 10:00 AMMC6: Applications and DiagnosticsOral Presentation
The ionization of ions to a higher charge state is of central importance for the development of new Accelerator Facilities like FAIR [1], and the resulting cost savings. Currently, mainly gas and foil strippers are used for increasing the charge state even after using a high performance ECR ion source in a typical Accelerator chain. Even when the foil or/and gas stripper efficiency or lifetime...
