An intense and focused heavy ion beam is a suitable tool to generate high energy density in matter. To compare results with simulations it is essential to know beam parameters as intensity, longitudinal, and transversal profile at the focal plane. Since the beam's energy deposition will melt and evaporate even tungsten, non-intercepting diagnostics are required. Therefore a capacitive pickup with high resolution in both time and space was designed, built and tested at the high temperature experimental area at GSI. Additionally a beam induced fluorescence monitor was investigated for the synchrotron's (SIS-18) energy-regime (60–750 AMeV) and successfully tested in a beam-transfer-line.

A new method was developed to produce enriched Sulfur targets with minimum loss of material. This was made possible by inserting Sulfur in-between two 0.5 μm Mylar foils (C10H8O4). The initial aim was to ensure that the Sulfur targets reduce by no more than 50% of the initial thickness within 24 hours under the equivalent of 10 J/cm2 of integrated energy deposition by an energetic (Eb > 50 MeV) proton beam. There is no loss of enriched material while making the target, as all the material is deposited within the surface area to be exposed to the beam. During beam irradiation, the targets were frequently swivelled in order to expose each part of the target to the beam and achieve homogeneous irradiation. Targets of 0.4 mg/cm2 thickness were produced and characterised using ion beam analysis technique with a 3 MeV proton beam.

AbstractIn this work, we review current trends in China to investigate beam plasma interaction phenomena. Recent progresses in China on low energy heavy ions and plasma interaction, ion beam-plasma interactions under the influences of magnetic fields, high energy heavy ion radiography through marginal range method, energy deposition of highly charged ions on surfaces and Raman spectroscopy of surfaces after irradiation of highly charged ions are presented.

ABSTRACTIn a previous paper, it was shown that the tribological properties of NbxNy thin films produced by ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) depend strongly on the beam energy and the ion-to-atom (R) ratio. This study was designed to separate ion energy vs. ion momentum effects on film stress, crystalline phase, grain size, morphology, and composition, all of which influence the tribological properties of the films. Inert ion beams (Kr, Ar, and Ne) were used in conjunction with a nitrogen gas backfill to independently control ion energy and ion momentum transfer to NbxNy films. The ion species, energies, and R ratios were chosen to create a matrix of coatings that exhibited the same total energy deposition with different momentum transfer or the same momentum transfer but different total energy deposition. The resultant films were characterized using Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS), x-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and residual stress analysis. Crystalline phases and texture, as well as residual stress, were more closely correlated with ion momentum transfer to the coating atoms than with overall ion energy input.
