Abstract
A high intensity microwave ion source for high current RFQ has been developed at China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE), China, for the China Demonstration Prototype of Accelerator Driven Sub-critical System (CDPADS) project. The aim of the source is to produce up to 50 mA cw proton beams at 75 keV at the RFQ match point. A more uniform magnetic field of the source is produced by electrical solenoids with the aid of permanent magnets. A hydrogen beam of more than 60 mA at 75 keV can be routinely extracted from a single 6.5-mm-diam aperture. To measure reliability/availability of the source, a continuous 120 h run has been performed. This article will report the main features and the current status of the source.Keywords
