|
||
Since the fall of 2000 proton beams are available from the source TRIPS, a high intensity microwave discharge ion source, the goal of which is the injection of a proton current of 40 mA in the following RFQ, with a rms normalized emittance lower than 0.2π mm-mrad for an operating voltage of 80 kV. TRIPS has recently moved to LNL and it is now under commissioning for a further optimization necessary to achieve SPES requirements. Details of the platform installation and preliminary characterization of extracted beam are presented. |
