Scheme for Low Energy Beam Transport with a non-neutralized section

Accelerator Physics 2015-04-24 v1

Abstract

A typical Low Energy Beam Transport (LEBT) design relies on dynamics with nearly complete beam space charge neutralization over the entire length of the LEBT. This paper argues that, for a beam with modest perveance and uniform current density distribution when generated at the source, a downstream portion of the LEBT can be un-neutralized without significant emittance growth.
