Status of ECR ion sources for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) (invited)

Abstract: Ahead of the commissioning schedule, installation of the first Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) ion source in the front end area of the Facility for Rare Isotope Beam (FRIB) is planned for the end of 2015. Operating at 14 GHz, this first ECR will be used for the commissioning and initial operation of the facility. In parallel, a superconducting magnet structure compatible with operation at 28 GHz for a new ECR ion source is in development at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The paper reviews the overal… Show more

“…To enhance availability and maintainability, the ECR sources and their charge selection systems are located at the ground level in the support building about 10 m above the linac tunnel floor, as shown in figure 3. The superconducting high-power source is based on the VENUS source developed at LBNL [4]. The room-temperature ARTEMIS source [5] will be used primarily for the commissioning and initial operation.…”

“…The simulations were done with high statistics under realistic conditions including all types of errors and misalignments using the IMPACT [12] and TRACK [13] codes on high performance computers. The end-to-end simulation started with a "realistic" distribution restored from emittance measurements of the uranium beam extracted from the VENUS ion source [4]. The "realistic" distribution of two-charge-state uranium is then tracked through the Front End and LS1.…”

“…1 and 2. While the linac tunnel is located about 10 m below the ground level for radiation shielding, its front end with two Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) ion sources [2] is located on the ground level. This layout allows us to develop the next ion beam with an ion source while the other is providing the beam for user operation.…”

“…Vanadium-48 would be useful as a radiotracer for nitrogen fixation studies in plants, 48 Cr is needed as a precursor for generating isotopically pure 48 V for stockpile stewardship studies, and 52 Fe would be useful as a positron-emission tomography (PET) radiotracer for both medicine and plant sciences. The FRIB heavy-ion beam begins at the front end (Figure 3) with a Super Conducting Electron Cyclotron Resonance (SC-ECR) ion source operating at 28 GHz [12].…”

“…The production of radioisotopes in the beam dump loop at FRIB can be approximated using the software developed by scientists at Michigan State University called LISE++ [39]. The number of lanthanide particles produced with a routine 200 MeV/nucleon 238 U beam after 1 week of operation is approximately 1x10 12 to 1x10 15 particles of each isotope (Figure 61). For the specific isotope 177 Lu (which is readily available at MURR), the maximum yield of particles occurs with a 186 W beam, which produces 8.5x10 14 particles (Figure 62) per week of operation.…”
