A new FEBIAD-type ion source for the upgrade of SPIRAL1 at GANIL
Résumé
The SPIRAL facility at GANIL is being upgraded with a new FEBIAD ion source in order to extend its production
capabilities to condensable elements. The coupling of such an ion source with the present GANIL
target was recently tested online at SPIRAL at nominal power (1200 W). The results are promising as the
calculated yields are in the range of those extrapolated from previous measurements at lower power and
sometimes higher. This experiment and its results are presented.
