Diagnostics of a charge breeder electron cyclotron resonance ion source helium plasma with the injection of ^{23}Na^{1+} ions

This work describes the utilization of an injected ^{23}Na^{1+} ion beam as a diagnostics of the helium plasma of a charge breeder electron cyclotron resonance ion source. The obtained data allows estimating the upper limit for the ion-ion collision mean-free path of the incident sodium ions, the lo...
