Implementation of Design Changes Towards a More Reliable, Hands-off Magnetron Ion Source
A. Sosa, D. S. Bollinger, P. R. Karns +1
As the main ion source for the accelerator complex, magnetron ion sources have been used at Fermilab since the 1970s. At the offline test stand, new R&D is carried out to d…
Recent Operation of the FNAL Magnetron Ion Source
P. R. Karns, D. S. Bollinger, A. Sosa
This paper will detail changes in the operational paradigm of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) magnetron ion source due to upgrades in the accelerator syste…
Performance Characterization of a Solenoid-type Gas Valve for the Magnetron Source at FNAL
A. Sosa, D. S. Bollinger, P. R. Karns
The magnetron-style ion sources currently in operation at Fermilab use piezoelectric gas valves to function. This kind of gas valve is sensitive to small changes in ambient…
Improvements on the Stability and Operation of a Magnetron H- Ion Source
A. Sosa, D. S. Bollinger, P. R. Karns +1
The magnetron H- ion sources developed in the 1970s currently in operation at Fermilab provide beam to the rest of the accelerator complex. A series of modifications to these sourc…
An Overview of the New Test Stand for H- Ion Sources at FNAL
A. Sosa, D. S. Bollinger, K. Duel +3
A new test stand at FNAL is being constructed to carry out experiments to develop and upgrade the present magnetron-type sources of H- ions of up to 80 mA at 35 keV in the context…
Instrumentation Developments and Beam Studies for the Fermilab Proton Improvement Plan LINAC Upgrade and New RFQ Front-End
Victor E. Scarpine, Cheng-Yang Tan, Pat R. Karns +7
Fermilab is developing a Proton Improvement Plan (PIP) to increase throughput of its proton source. The plan addresses hardware modifications to increase repetition rate and improv…
