Abstract The Front End Test Stand (FETS) at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) requires a 60 mA, 2 ms, 50 Hz H− beam. The present source can only deliver the current and pulse length requirements at 25 Hz. At 50 Hz there is too much droop in the beam current. To rectify this, a scaled source is being developed. This paper details the new source design and the experiments conducted that are guiding the design.
