Abstract |
|
|
| The aim of the Pro-ESR project is to design, construct and operate a state-of-the-art
fixed energy electrostatic storage ring that will allow for precision experiments with
most different kinds of ions in the energy range of up to 30 keV at the National Center
for Mathematic and Physics (NCMP) at the King Abdulaziz City for Science and
Technology (KACST). The ring is planed to be the central machine of a unique experimental
platform that will allow, for the first time, to combine storage-ring and singlepass
experiments. The lattice design therefore needs to take the different experimental
techniques that the ring will be equipped with into account, such as e.g. electronion
crossed-beams and ion-laser/ion-ion/ion-neutral merged-beams techniques. Others
kinds of experiments that will be connected to the ring will be dedicated to material
and surface sciences, like e.g. ion sputtering and ion beam analysis and characterization
(IBA), which require a high quality of the optical scheme.
This paper presents the technical and particle optical design of this novel machine,
explains the particular changes in its layout, and reports on the general project status. |
