Multiple charge beam dynamics in alternate phase focusing structure

Asymmetrical alternate phase (A-APF) focusing realized in a sequence of 36 superconducting quarter wave resonators (QWRs) has been shown to accelerate almost 81% of input uranium beam before foil stripper to an energy of 6.2 MeV/u from 1.3 MeV/u.Ten charge states from 34+ to 43+ could here be simultaneously accelerated with the phase of resonators tuned for 34+.The A-APF structure click here showed the unique nature of a large potential bucket for charge states higher than that of the tuned one.

Steering inherent to QWRs can be mitigated by selecting appropriate phase variation of the APF periods and optimization of solenoid field strengths placed in each of the periods.This mitigation facilitates the multiple charge state acceleration scheme.
