Abstract :
Carbon foils are widely used in charge-ex change injection in high intensity hadron accelerators. There are a number of physics issues associated with the use of carbon foils, including stripping efficiency, energy deposition and foil lifetime (temperature rise, mechanical stress and buckling, etc.). This paper will give a brief discussion of these issues.
