Abstract
HIBISCUS (Helium-Inflated Beam Improvement Setup that Cools and Undermines Spreads), a new radiofrequency quadrupole cooler-buncher device has been developed and commissioned offline at the Ion Guide Isotope Separator On-Line (IGISOL) facility in Jyväskylä in Finland, as an in-kind contribution for the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research facility. HIBISCUS improves the ion optical properties of incident low-energy 6 keV beams with the option to have it ultimately extracted in temporally short bunches ( ). This paper provides technical descriptions of its main characteristics, along with a set of optimum working parameters and performance in terms of transmission efficiency, longitudinal energy spread of the cooled ions and temporal width of the extracted bunches.
期刊介绍:
Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section.
Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.
