Abstract
An electron cyclotron resonance charge breeder for the Californium rare ion breeder upgrade (CARIBU), a new radioactive beam facility for the Argonne Tandem Linac Accelerator System (ATLAS), has been constructed and commissioned. Charge breeding efficiencies up to 15.6% have been realized for stable beams with a typical breeding time of 10 ms∕charge state. The CARIBU system has been undergoing commissioning tests utilizing a 100 mCi (252)Cf fission source. A charge breeding efficiency of 14.8 ± 5% has been achieved for the first radioactive beam of (143)Cs(27+).
