Description
Sources are an essential part of an accelerator chain. At CERN, a duoplasmatron and an ECR Ion Source provide the protons and ions for the present accelerator complex and the future LHC. In this seminar we will look at a few of the properties of a plasma that are required to understand how ion sources work, followed by a description of the Penning, Duoplasmatron and ECR ion sources.
