The 45 GHz highly-charged ECR ion source has the highest magnetic fields and microwave frequency. Tang noted that carbon-carbon fusion reactions are a challenging area of study in cosmic element evolution, remaining a frontier issue since the 1960s. "LEAF can simulate the nuclear reactions occurring inside stars in a laboratory setting, helping scientists address long-standing questions about cosmic element evolution. …
The schematic diagram of the Low Energy high intensity heavy ion Accelerator Facility. The Low Energy High Intensity Heavy Ion Accelerator Facility, or LEAF, constructed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Modern Physics in Lanzhou, Gansu province, began operations this week, according to researchers. "Chinese scientists have already used LEAF to produce ion beams with an intensity of …
An oncology hospital featuring the application of domestic heavy ion accelerators will be developed in the Wuhan Economic & Technological Development Zone -- located in Wuhan city in Central China’s Hubei province -- according WHDZ officials. In the new technology, through medical heavy ion accelerators, carbon ions that are invisible to the naked eye can be driven into the patient …
