The proposed tandem injector for the Vicksi facility

Abstract

The improvements are described resulting from the addition of an 8 MV tandem as a second injector for the VICKSI accelerator combination. For ion beams with masses A < 30 the limitation for high energy beams will be given by the magnetic field of the cyclotron, e.g. 32 MeV/A. The alternate use of the two electrostatic injectors will increase the available beam time. The variety of ions for acceleration with VICKSI will be enlarged considerably by use of sputter sources.
