Abstract

The separation parameters of a collector of heated ions are estimated in the context of the ion cyclotron resonance method of isotope separation. The separation power dU, the coefficient ΓC of the extraction of the target isotope, and the collector efficiency η are calculated. These parameters are investigated as functions of the repulsive potential U of the collector plates, the half-height a of the front screen, and the distance b between the plates. It is shown that the dependence of the collector efficiency η on the distance b between the plates has a pronounced maximum at b ≈ 2r * L , where r * L is the mean ion gyroradius.
