Status of high intensity proton injector for Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research
2019
The high intensity proton injector for the international accelerator Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research located at GSI-Darmstadt in Germany consists of a pulsed 2.45 GHz microwave ion source, a Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT), and an electrostatic chopper matching the proton beam to the radio frequency quadrupole. The ion source is based on electron cyclotron resonance plasma production and it has to provide a proton beam at 95 keV energy and up to 100 mA current. The LEBT system with two short solenoids each including two magnetic steerers will transport the proton beam into the compact proton linac, accelerating it to the energy of 68 MeV and serving as the injector of the upgraded heavy ion synchrotron (SIS18). This paper describes the commissioning of the proton injector including beam characterization measurements that have been done at CEA/Saclay in France and is currently at the final commissioning stage.
