Abstract :
The bunching requirements for a heavy-ion tandemlinac accelerator are defined and a bunching system to satisfy these requirenents is outlined. This discussion introduces an experimrent on the bunching of 45 MeV 16O ions by means of a ¿/2 superconducting-helix resonator. The measured ion-bunch width is 64 psec, a value daminated by the resolution width of the ion detector. By correcting for the detector-resolution width one infers that the ion bunch itself is <40 psec wide.
