摘要

Purpose

This study systematically evaluates the error sources in the reverse calculation of negative hydrogen ion beam extraction, with a focus on the impact of co-extracted electrons and measurement sampling.

Methods

An iterative-convergence-based beam dynamics algorithm was implemented using the COMSOL simulation platform. Errors were quantified by comparing reverse-calculated phase-space distributions with original forward simulation data.

Results

When co-extracted electrons were neglected in both forward and reverse simulations, the beam envelope error remained below 0.5%. However, omitting electrons in the reverse calculation while they were present in the forward simulation led to an error that increased with \(I_e/I_{H^-}\) I e / I H - . The assumed electron distribution also affected the results, with deviations from the true distribution introducing additional error. Furthermore, the sampling process of pepper-pot measurements contributed to the overall uncertainty in the reconstruction.

Conclusion

Ignoring co-extracted electrons leads to substantial errors in reverse calculation, while adopting a suitable electron distribution model improves accuracy. Optimal measurement sampling further enhances reconstruction reliability. These findings provide guidance for improving the reverse-calculation-based reconstruction of ion source meniscus profiles.
