34. 34C. CavataBENE 17/03/05 Beam neutralization principle potential well residual gas (H 2 ) in the beam transport line Electrical neutralization is performed by e - trapping in the potential well of the beam. H 2 + ions are repelled to the pipe Let's consider a 100 mA proton beam @ 100 keV in a LEBT electrical field Production of e - and H 2 + ions by ionization of residual gas p + H 2 p + e - + H 2 +

35. 35C. CavataBENE 17/03/05 Beam neutralization: background People (including us) use to simulate the beam dynamic with full space charge or, sometimes, without space charge assuming a perfect neutralization (each proton is married to an e - ). But experiments and some theoretical analysis showed that the situation is more complex. The beam charge may be partially compensated and the neutralizing distribution is not similar to the beam one. This may lead to emittance growth. The transcients may be problematic for pulsed machines. We aim to study this topic using a PIC code (Cartago) in a first approach, in 2D (XY and RZ). Collisions MUST be included to refine the predictions for the equilibrium.

37. 37C. CavataBENE 17/03/05 ECR source modelization Loss predictions of beam dynamics codes are very sensitive to input distributions. A better optical quality at the beginning of the injector increases the efficiency and simplifies the strategy for the implementation of collimators. We can dream also to increase the performances in term of reliability, rise time,... WHY?
