H– and D– sources for fusion, accelerators and other applications
Oral
On the BATMAN testbed prototypes of RF driven negative ion sources of about one eight of the size of the ITER source have been developed and tested since 1997. The positive results had led to the decision to equip the ITER NBI with RF sources.
During the past 1.5 years this test facility has been upgraded in order to have an extraction system and source design closer to that of the ITER...

H– and D– sources for fusion, accelerators and other applications
Oral
At the BATMAN test facility, prototypes of RF driven sources of negative hydrogen ions for neutral beam heating systems have been developed successfully over the last decades. Recently, the test facility has been upgraded with a new ITER-like extraction system comparable in size to one ITER beamlet group. Like for the ITER sources, the magnetic filter field can now also be generated by a...

H– and D– sources for fusion, accelerators and other applications
Oral
The ion source NIO1 (Negative Ion Optimization 1) is a versatile multiaperture H$^-$ source capable of continuous regime operation, with the plasma generated by a 2 MHz/2.5 kW radiofrequency (rf) power supply and nine beamlet extraction, operated since 2014 in close collaboration between Consorzio RFX and INFN-LNL. It aims to partly reproduce the conditions of the much larger ion sources built...
