Abstract
Production and focusing of a 0.2 TW proton beam are reported. The beam was produced with a pinch-reflex ion diode set on the high power pulse generator Reiden IV. The diode characteristics were in good agreement with the theoretical model. The ballistic focusing of the beam was performed by the space-charge neutralization. Experimental observations of the beam focal dynamics were in reasonable agreement with calculation of particle orbits.Keywords
