Abstract

In the course of an experimental study on collisional processes of highly charged ions (HCIs), we developed a procedure to produce and extract HCIs with a very high charge-state for various kinds of heavy elements at the Tokyo EBIT (Electron Beam Ion Trap). The charge-state spectra of the extracted HCIs for some elements were measured using dierent EBIT operation conditions.

Keywords
