Abstract

A helium ion beam is injected into a linear plasma device for the development of an ion beam source simulating high energy particle flux in divertor plasma. Beam current density more than 10 mA/cm(2) is extracted. Measurement of beam currents indicates that the beam is transported along the linear device and reaches to the downstream end plate.
