Abstract :
An RFQ (radio-frequency quadrupole) has been designed and built as a postaccelerator for the cluster accelerator facility at the IPN (Institute de Physique Nucleaire) Lyon, France. The four-rod RFQ resonator is designed for variable energy by means of a variable frequency of the resonator between 80 and 110 MHz. The properties of the RFQ for the typical cluster mass ranges of up to 50 u are discussed and the status of the project is reported.<>
