Electromagnetic study improves proton current generation in a microwave discharge source, indicating enhanced performance.
The microwave discharge proton source PM-TRIPS (Permanent Magnet TRASCO Intense Proton Source) is under construction at INFN-LNS and its goal is to generate a 40 mA proton current at 80 kV extraction voltage with low emittance and high reliability. In order to improve the performances of such ion source, an electromagnetic study of the whole source with particular care to the microwave coupling and to the high voltage insulation has been carried out by using the Ansoft HFSS code and the results are here reported.
