Abstract
At the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), molecular ions extracted from a positive ion source and subsequently broken up in a charge exchange cell produce Radioactive Ion Beams (RIBs) with several hundred eV energy spread, preventing effective magnetic isobar separation. In order to perform magnetic isobar separation prior to charge exchange, a multi-harmonic buncher and a 12 MHz RFQ (Radio-Frequency Quadrupole) is proposed to supplement the present 300 kV injection system for the 25 MV tandem electrostatic accelerator. The RFQ will be mounted on a variable high voltage platform to accelerate ions with masses from 10 to 150 amu.
