INSTALLATION

Implementation of the RFQ into the ISOLDE vacuum system. Construction of HV platform and HV cage of the RFQ. Standard controls in the working sets: QP arrays for the RFQ and for the beam tuning after the cooler.

– RF and gas still on LabVIEW.

OPERATION OF ISCOOL

  • Set-up by the ISOLDE operators.
  • Improved transmission past the switchyard

Improved (faster and easier) set-up for the beam to the experiments

Transmissions

  • Potentials along the axis

Transmission dependence on the emittance of the ISOLDE ion sources.

ISOLDE on-line surface ion sources has smaller emittance than ISOLDE FEBIAD ion sources (<25 π·mm mrad). The off-line tests were performed with an ion source with ε = 35π mm mrad 80eV 5-2V/cm ~1E-2 mbar 4He 10-2mbar l/s EXTRACTION INJECTION 50V (30V enough) TRAPPING

Cooling time

  • TOF < 1ms from the

entrance to the exit of the RFQ

– No losses for short lived ions.

  • 1 passage is enough

to get a cold beam

– as measured off-line, and other labs as predicted by simulations for other systems

Emittance measurements (off-line)

~35π·mm·mrad 95% emittance ~2.2π·mm·mrad 95% emittance

  • 10 x decrease of the

beam emittance

– The worst case scenario at ISOLDE is the FEBIAD ion source with >25 p·mm·mrad emmittance.

  • Injection efficiency into

the cooler is depending

  • n the beam emittance

  • High transmission efficiencies
  • Easy beam tuning to experiments
  • Yield measurements continuous vs. bunched

mode

  • Losses due to trapping time (analysis in
