Abstract
A program has been started at the Texas Accelerator Center (TAC) to develop H/sup -/ ion sources for its 500-keV radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) program. The group is working on both magnetron and volume ion sources. A tilted extraction system has been designed for the magnetron source which corrected a 25-mrad angular offset in the extracted beam. An LBL type volume H/sup -/ ion source has been designed and constructed. To date, the plasma generator of the source has been tested, with extracted beam tests beginning during 1991.<>
