Summary

The cryogenic electron beam ion source at Kansas State University has been in operation since spring 1989. It produces up to argon(18+), krypton(34+) and xenon (44+) on a regular basis. Acceleration tubes and a beamline system were added during 1990. The ion source is mounted on a high voltage platform, which can be used to vary the ion energies between 2 and 200 kilovolts per charge. The extraction-, analyzing-, and beamline systems were designed to accept a wide range of ion masses and charge states with the mass energy product stretching over four orders of magnitude. The system is used to study the low-energy highly charged ions interacting with electrons, atoms, thin foils, and surfaces.
