Abstract
- We describe the results of experimental investigations of factors restricting the maximum compression of multi-aperture heavy-ion beams focused by a high-current electrostatic plasma lens. We show that, under optimal conditions of the lens operation for which all negative factors are removed or suppressed, the compression of the ion beam is determined only by its initial emittance.
