Abstract
A continuous source of energetic hydrogen atoms has been developed for use in a plasma experiment. The mechanical design and some operating characteristics of the ion source are described, as well as the beam focusing and neutralizing system. An output of 65‐mA power equivalent of 20‐keV hydrogen atoms has been measured on a 2.0×6.3 cm target located 350 cm from the ion source.Keywords
