Abstract

The numerical investigation of the hollow high-current ion beam (HHCIB) dynamics in two magnet-isolated accelerating gaps of induction linac are presented. It has been shown that the applied electric field destroys partially the charge and current compensations, and impairs the brightness of the ion beam when the electron beam energy is not sufficient to overcome the potential difference. The acceleration, the charge and current compensations, and the stability of the high-brightness ion beam can be achieved under the optimum parameters choice
