Abstract

The LION source is a new laser ion source (LIS), which was installed and commissioned at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for low charge state heavy ion production as an external source of primary ions for RHIC-EBIS. This is the first LIS for low charge state ion production to be combined with an Electron Beam Ion Source type heavy ion source for long term user operation. After short term of commissioning, the LION started to provide various ion species for NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL) since March, 2014, and Gold beam has been provided for RHIC since June, 2014.
