Production of Iterated Leakage from a Mirror Machine Using Iron Bars. Final Report, June 15, 1972-July 31, 1975

摘要

It is a goal of this program to split the ion flux out of a mirror machine into a sufficiently large number of beams that the space charge in each is small and easily controlled. A means of doing this is illustrated schematically. A perforated iron slab is placed in the throat of the mirror machine in the hope that the field at the holes in the ion will be sufficiently weakened that particles will escape through these holes before they can drift into the escape cones corresponding to other portions of the mirror throat.
