Abstract

For REX-ISOLDE (Radioactive beam EXperiments at ISOLDE/CERN), a test beamline is built up at the Garching Accelerator Lab. to perform He ¹⁺-experiments with the RFQ, the matching (rebunching) section between RFQ and IH-DT-linac, the IH-structure and several electrostatic lenses of the REX-ISOLDE-mass separator. In a first step, the beamline is conceived for tests with the RFQ. This paper presents the parameters and the status of the REX-RFQ, the experimental setup and the particle dynamics simulations with the COSY infinity code for beam injection and beam analysis. Furthermore it shows the design and status of the mass separator, the IH-structure and the buncher section
