Collective Ion Accelerators with Transverse Motion of the Ring

Abstract
A collaboration group from the Barn and Lecce Universities has started some theoretical and experimental work on a new type of collective ion accelerator. Ion acceleration can be obtained by the electric field produced by an electron ring which drifts perpendicularly to the external magnetic field. The model machines which are now in construction are called ANEL, from the italian translation of E.R.A. ANEL 1 is a model of static field ERA, which will be used to study the injection, stability and ionization problems. ANEL 2 is a device designed to study the feasibility of a "collective syncrotron". The first injection tests are planned for 1972.
