Abstract

The structure of the designed calcium plasma source for an installation for separating calcium isotopes based on the ion cyclotron resonance in plasma (ICR separation method) is described. Two variants of the source are presented: a source with a standalone calcium evaporator and a source with a solid calcium surface facing the discharge region. In both variants, an ECR discharge can be used to ionize calcium atoms (microwave discharge in a magnetic field at the electron cyclotron frequency).
