Abstract

The aim of the EXCYT project at the Laboratorio Nazionale del Sud (LNS) is the production of radioactive beams, and for this we need to carry out the ionization of recoils produced in a target with as high an efficiency as possible. In order to obtain efficient positive ionization the microwave discharge ion source (MIDAS) has been designed to be followed by a charge exchange canal. A prototype of this source has been designed, built, and tested at the LNS and a description of this source is presented in this article along with the preliminary results and a design of the final version.
