Abstract :
Collective acceleration of hydrogen and helium ions by relativistic electron rings has been achieved in the Garching ERA. It features fast electron ring compression and smooth magnetic expansion acceleration. Acceleration of the confined ions was demonstrated by the increase of inertia with the load of the rings and by nuclear track recording.
