A ¹⁰Be beam having intensities up to 3 enA has been accelerated at the Tandem of the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud in Catania. The used ¹⁰Be was chemically extracted from a proton irradiated graphite target used for muon production at the Paul Scherrer Institute. In order to maximise the extracted current using a minimum amount of isotope, several preparatory tests, needed to optimise the preparation of the Tandem sputter source cathodes, were performed. The acceleration tests and accelerated beam characteristics will be discussed and examples of beam use for nuclear structure investigations will be presented.

在卡塔尼亚串联加速器上以“离线模式”开发出强烈的¹⁰ Be放射性束

在卡塔尼亚的纳苏里纳利·德尔·苏德实验室，一束强度高达3 enA的¹⁰ Be光束被加速。用过的¹⁰ Be是从Paul Scherrer研究所的用于质子生产的质子辐照石墨靶中化学提取的。为了使用最小量的同位素来最大化提取电流，需要执行一些准备试验，以优化串联溅射源阴极的制备。将讨论加速测试和加速光束特性，并提供用于核结构研究的光束示例。
