A quick journey through ion sources, from the plasma pioneers and hot filament ion sources, to microwave ion sources and Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) ion sources. Even higher charge states can be reached with Electron Beam ion sources. Vacuum arc and laser plasma ion sources are used for ‘hard to ionise’ materials. There are several good uses for negative ions, but how do you make them? Caesium is key to high current negative ion production, however the volume process can also reliably and cleanly create negative ions. The Low Energy Beams Group at ISIS is currently developing two world leading negative ion sources: the 150 mA 2X Scaled Penning Surface Plasma Source and an un-caesiated maintenance-free Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) negative volume source for ISIS operations.

IsoDAR@YEMILAB and its next-generation proton cyclotron
- Roger Barlow (University of Huddersfield (GB))
4:15 PM - 5:15 PM
The IsoDAR cyclotron design, for a neutrino experiment at YEMILAB, Korea, produces $60\,$MeV protons with a beam current of $10\,$mA. This is an order of magnitude larger than that from conventional machines and will be a game changer for medical isotope production. This is achieved through three innovations: use of $\rm H_{2}^{+}$ as the accelerated particle, deploying an RFQ in place of the usual LEBT system, and harnessing the 'vortex motion' of the high current beam to reduce the transverse beam dimension. These will be explained, and the current status and prospects outlined.

The Muon Collider
- Daniel Schulte (CERN)
4:15 PM - 5:15 PM
Recently, the muon collider has been recognised as an important option to be considered for the future of particle physics. It is part of the European Accelerator R&D Roadmap developed in 2021 and approved by the CERN Council. Also, interest is increasing in the Americas and in Asia, demonstrated, for example, by the ongoing Snowmass process. The presentation will give an introduction io the muon collider concept and the identified challenges. It will also describe the R&D progress and plans.
