Multicharged ion beams generation in "Preglow" regime is now considered as the main way of short pulsed ion source creation for “Beta Beam” project. The "Preglow" effect has been investigated at a several laboratories (LPSC, JYFL, IAP RAS). The effect was discovered at LPSC on PHOENIX ion source using 18 GHz radiation for plasma heating. Investigations at 14 GHz frequency were made at JYFL. Theoretical analysis demonstrated the advantage of MW frequency increase. Theoretical calculations predict possibility of "Preglow" peaks generation with duration about tens microseconds and rather high average ion charge. At present time at LPSC a joint construction of a new generation ECR ion source with 60 GHz gyrotron plasma heating is running. As a continuation of previous research at 14, 18 and 28 GHz at present work results of experimental and theoretical "Preglow" effect investigations at SMIS 37 setup with 37,5 GHz MW plasma heating are reported. Received data are important as fundamental result in physics of ECRISs and at the same time it is the next step on the way of 60 GHz SEISM facility creation. “Preglow” effect was observed and investigated in experiments with ECR discharge stimulated with gyrotron radiation @ 37.5 GHz, 100 kW. Received dependencies of the “Preglow” parameters are in good correspondence with results of numerical simulations. It was shown in experiments that generation of “Preglow” peak with duration about 30 μs is possible.

Present work is devoted to experimental and theoretical investigation of possibility of short pulsed (< 100 μs) multicharged ion beams creation. The possibility of quasi-stationary generation of short pulsed beams under conditions of quasi-gasdynamic plasma confinement was shown in recent experiments. Later another way of such beams creation based on “Preglow” effect was proposed. In present work it was demonstrated that in the case when duration of MW pulse is less then formation time of “Preglow” peak, realization of a regime when ion current is equal to zero during MW pulse and intense multicharged ions flux appears only when MW ends could be possible. Such pulses after the end of MW were called "micropulses". In present work generation of micropulses was observed in experiments with ECR discharge stimulated by gyrotron radiation @ 37,5GHz, 100 kW. In this case pulses with duration less than 30 μs. Probably the same effect was observed in GANIL where 14 GHz radiation was used and pulses with duration about 2 ms were registered. In present work it was shown that intensity of such micropulse could be higher than intensity of “Preglow” peak at the same conditions but with longer MW pulse. The generation of micropulses of nitrogen and argon multicharged ions with current of a few mA and length about 30 μs after MW pulse with duration of 30-100 μs was demonstrated. The low level of impurities, high current density and rather high average charge make possible to consider such micropulse regime as perspective way for creation of a short pulsed ion source.
