71. Ion Sources for Heavy Ion Fusion

Joe Kwan

Invited talk

Joe W. Kwan Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Berkeley, CA, 94720, USA Heavy Ion Fusion requires ion beam, with several MJ energy, to compress and heat a fusion target to the required density and ignition temperature. Typical beam pulse length at the target is ~10 ns with beam current at ~ 100 kA (total charge ~ 1 mC) and energy at several GeVs. Even shorter pulse length is...

Invited talk

M. Okamura (1,3); K. Kondo (1,2); K. Takahashi (2) (1) Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY, USA (2) Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo, Japan (3) RIKEN, Saitama, Japan In Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), several laser ion source (LIS) development projects are in progress. By combining accumulated technologies, a feasible scenario of a LIS for heavy ion fusion is...

86. Lithium Ion Sources

Prabir Roy

Invited talk

Prabir K. Roy, Wayne Greenway, Dave P. Grote, Joe W. Kwan, Steven M. Lidia, Peter A. Seidl, and William L. Waldron Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), One Cyclotron Road, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA A lithium ion beam is attractive as it requires lower energies than other widely uses ions, such as K+, Cs+, Na+, to transport up to the targets for warm dense matter studies. Recently,...
