First acceleration of heavy ion beams with a superconducting continuous wave HIM/GSI CW-linac
2020
Heavy Ion Accelerator Technology 2018, Lanzhou, China, 22 Oct 2018 - 26 Oct 2018; Journal of physics / Conference series 1401, 012012 (2020). doi:10.1088/1742-6596/1401/1/012012
Status and recent developments at the polarized-electron injector of the superconducting Darmstadt electron linear accelerator S-DALINAC
2011
At the superconducting Darmstadt electron linac a 100 keV source of polarized electrons has been installed. Major components had been tested prior to installation at an offline teststand. Commissioning of the new source at the S-DALINAC will take place early in 2011. We report on the performance of the teststand, simulations, developments on the laser systems, new radio-frequency components for the S-DALINAC injector, and the status of the implementation of the source.

Positron production using a 9 MeV electron linac for the GBAR experiment
2020
For the GBAR (Gravitational Behaviour of Antihydrogen at Rest) experiment at CERN's Antiproton Decelerator (AD) facility we have constructed a source of slow positrons, which uses a low-energy electron linear accelerator (linac). The driver linac produces electrons of 9 MeV kinetic energy that create positrons from bremsstrahlung-induced pair production. Staying below 10 MeV ensures no persistent radioactive activation in the target zone and that the radiation level outside the biological shield is safe for public access. An annealed tungsten-mesh assembly placed directly behind the target acts as a positron moderator. The system produces $5\times10^7$ slow positrons per second, a performan…
