Abstract

The minimum-B magnetic field structure of electron cyclotron resonance ion sources (ECRIS) has conventionally been formed with a combination of solenoids and a hexapole magnet. However, minimum-B structure can also be formed with arc-shaped coils. Recently it was shown that multiply charged heavy-ions can be produced with an ECRIS based on such a structure. In the future, the ARC-ECRIS magnetic field structure can be an interesting option for radioactive ion-beam sources and charge-breeders as well as for high performance ECRIS allowing for 100 GHz plasma heating. This paper presents some design aspects of the ARC-ECRIS.
