Abstract
The importance, feasibility and method for measuring the photo-ionization cross-section of multi-charged ions using the RIKEN Electron Beam Ion Source (REBIS) is discussed. Specifically the cases for the 2 s and 1 s photo-ionization of Ar14+ is explored. It is concluded that such measurements are possible today and in future (3rd generation) synchrotron radiation facilities, and will be carried out upon modifications of the apparatus. Also described, is the first test of a PHOton Beam Ion Source using REBIS. It's potential advantage over other ion sources is that in the ion production mechanism photoionization the recoil ions obtain only near thermal energies to making ion beams with very low energy spread possible.
