Measurement of the laser plasma properties of the direct plasma injection method to the RFQ LINAC on the RIKEN laser ion source

Abstract

The laser plasma properties of the RIKEN laser ion source on the direct plasma injection system (DPIS) were measured for analysis of the DPIS beam dynamics. From the installed electrostatic analyzer and the measured calibration value from Ceratron to Faraday Cup, the current values and pulse time structure for each carbon charge state in the laser plasma were obtained.
