چکیده
A brief introduction to electron and ion sources for particle accelerators is given. Concentrating on the basic processes for the production of these particles, thermionic and photocathode production of electrons and the processes in Penning and electron cyclotron resonance ion sources are covered. Finally, negative ions are discussed.

Electron Beam Ion Sources, Ion Optical Elements and Beam Diagnostics for Particle Accelerators
Electron Beam Ion Sources (EBISs) provide highly charged ions (HCIs) for a variety of investigations and applications, e.g. amongst others as injection source for particle accelerators. EBISs feature a lot of advantages which qualify them for accelerator injection, and which partly compensate for their comparatively low number of particles. DREEBIT GmbH provides a family of compact EBISs based ...

متن کاملPlasma Wave Acceleration of Electron in Bubble Regime in Presence of a Planar Wiggler
The plasma wave acceleration of electron in the bubble regime is investigated in a new configuration containing a planar wiggler. The space-charge field of the laser-created ion channel can focuse and stabilize the electron trajectory to guide it toward the acceleration region. The high-gradient plasma wave field can resonantly accelerate the trapped electron to higher energies in the presence ...
متن کاملOptical control of hard X-ray polarization by electron injection in a laser wakefield accelerator
Laser-plasma particle accelerators could provide more compact sources of high-energy radiation than conventional accelerators. Moreover, because they deliver radiation in femtosecond pulses, they could improve the time resolution of X-ray absorption techniques. Here we show that we can measure and control the polarization of ultra-short, broad-band keV photon pulses emitted from a laser-plasma-...
