Abstract
A positive ion source of the low voltage constricted arc type, which yields intense positive ion beams with small gas pumping, is described. Ion currents up to 4.3 milliamperes have been obtained using a probe canal 6 mm long and 1 mm in diameter. Magnetic analysis, when the arc was operated in hydrogen, showed a maximum of 15 to 20 percent protons.
