The physics design of a Photo Fission Ion Source (PFIS) which will be used in a heavy ion accelerator is introduced. The design variables being considered are asymmetric magnetic field, cooling, neutron reflector and modulator (high density graphite), UCx target, bremsstrahlung power, microwave power and fission fragments (ions). Based on the design studied performed by using Monte Carlo codes and nuclear data, we will present the results, performance, optimization, ion distribution, bremsstrahlung power dependent radiation distribution, and temperature distributions. Finally we will conclude the feasibility of PFIS.
