The Electron Beam Ion Source (EBIS) produces highly charged heavy ions by electron impact ionization of ions electrostatically trapped within a dense energetic electron beam. Because of its pulsed operation and the highly charged ions produced, the EBIS is ideally suited as an injector for a high-gradient, low duty-cycle linac such as that being developed at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL) in the program to design a Pion Generator for Medical Irradiation (PIGMI). This combination of new technologies would produce an efficient, small heavy ion linac useful in a variety of research and practical applications.
