High-current H2+ beams from a filament-driven multicusp ion source

We report the results from a new multicusp ion source (MIST-1) that produces record steady-state currents of H2 + (1 mA) from this type of ion source with high purity (80% H2 +). We built MIST-1 to fulfill the stringent beam purity and beam quality requirements for IsoDAR, a proposed discovery-level...
