This report summarises the activities and the subjects that were discussed during the 2. Annual meeting of the network LEIF, organised by the Foundation of Research and Technologies Hellas-Heraklion and held from the 12th to the 17th of September 2001 in Fodele Beach on Crete. In contrast to the first annual 2-days meeting in Potsdam, this LEIF-conference lasted for 6 days, as in addition to the ‘normal’ network programme workshops and courses have been organised. Thus, the first 2 days have been devoted to a presentation of the software package LABVIEW, a system that has been chosen by LEIF as a standard system for experimental control and data transfer (project L3). We appreciated very much that a large number of our colleagues (40 participants, including a large fraction from the local institution) took the chance to participate in this course that offered not only a theoretical instruction but also a practical training in this programming language. Furthermore, two separate workshops were organised covering on the one hand the field of ‘ion deceleration and beam control’ (project L6) and on the other side different aspects of efficient particle detection (project L4). Both workshops were very informative as they showed the newest developments in these fields and allowed for comparisons of different methods that have been applied in different laboratories (for example different techniques of decelerating ion beams to eV-energies).

During a so-called ‘user-day’ different user projects were presented either in oral form (17) or as posters (38). This method was very successful in improving the communication between the participants and initiating new collaborations or personal exchanges in the near future.

One ‘LEIF-habit’ consists of inviting experts to the meetings and workshops, who are working in different fields, not necessarily identical with the domain of highly charged ions. This exchange with nearby-fields is recognised as an important tool to communicate and to open our domain to other fields and to possibly identify subjects where the highly charged ion physics can help to improve our understanding.

In particular, we would like to thank Dr. Pasini for clarifying the ideas of the European Commission concerning the funding within the next 6. Framework programme and the evolution of the infrastructure co-operation networks.

It is encouraging that the number of participants increased from 60 to about 75 persons. In particular we appreciated the large fraction of younger scientists (age <~ 35 years), who represented about half of the participants. Unfortunately, some of our colleagues could not participate in this conference due to the events of the 11th of September, but we hope to welcome them the next time.

We would like to thank all colleagues for their help in making this meeting a lively and interesting one, held in a very enjoyable surrounding which allowed for many individual discussions late into the night.

II)              Progress reports on the LEIF-projects (L1 – L6)

 

On Saturday afternoon the persons in charge of the different projects gave an overview on the activities and the initiatives that have been undertaken in the different fields. In the following a short summary is given.

 

Project L1: Information policy

 

The main objectives of this project concern the development and the maintenance of the LEIF- homepage, the creation of a newsletter as well as of other forms of distributing information.

Progress has been made on several web pages linked to the central LEIF-homepage. However, some of the proposed pages are still empty and will need a special effort in developing. This concerns those pages that present a special apparatus, ion beam specifications, standardised protocols or facilities. In the case of ion beam characterisation new data will only be included when they have been measured with the standardised LEIF Faraday cup system.

Several articles and contributions, which describe the progress in instrumentation, important activities or outstanding scientific results, have been collected and will be put together in the first issue of the LEIF-newsletter. The volume is expected to appear on the web at the end of 2001.

 

Project L2: Management and quality

 

The development of a beam time application form is a first step towards a centralised beam time distribution. This form is available on the LEIF-homepage and has already been tested by several users in describing their projects (presented at the poster session in Heraklion). In addition a flow chart has been proposed which defines the rules for a possible future centralised beam time organisation. Actually a model is discussed where the different infrastructures provide a LEIF-committee with a certain percentage of their total beam time for distribution. The other part of the beam time will be distributed by the local organisation or the local committees. In a pilot project, MSL has demanded from its advisory committee 8 weeks of beam time in 2002 for LEIF-users. This beam time can be requested upon demand from a small-size LEIF-committee (co-ordinator and 2 outside scientists).

A second objective concerns the application of quality standards to the LEIF activities, in particular the LEIF projects. In order to intensify these efforts a quality club has been initiated which includes the persons who are in charge of the different projects. A first meeting of the quality club – open to the whole community – was organised in Heraklion. The following agreement has been obtained:

-                       In order to improve the internal communication it has been agreed that e-mail messages should be answered rapidly, with a maximum delay of 1 week. In general a date of response should be fixed in the mail (a quality rule will be established).

-                       A quality plan and the corresponding rules should be defined for the different LEIF-projects. A first version should be delivered before the 15th of November by the persons in charge for the different projects.

-                       As an example, an elaborated quality flow chart and the content of the next quality meeting will be communicated by H. Lebius.

 

The priority list of future developments will be established in 2002.

 


Project L3: On-line access

 

The main objective concerns the possible remote participation of different research teams in an experiment that is performed at one of the infrastructures. A fast and efficient data access system as well as the remote control of ion sources are declared aims. The participant should have direct access to the status of the machine, of the control room in general as well as to the raw data. These goals require a standardisation of the acquisition and data control systems.

Similar schemes of ‘remote user participation’ exist for example at the Joint European Torus (JET) in Culham and the technical aspects of this operational system will be analysed in more detail for possible applications in our network. At present, the software package Labview has been chosen as the LEIF-standard and a 2-day course on this language was given during the 2nd annual meeting in Heraklion. This instruction has been appreciated by many LEIF-scientists (~40 participants). Actually, the individual experiences with Labview and the advantages and disadvantages are discussed.

Concerning the remote control of machines several projects are under the way or have already been developed. This concerns the groups in Aarhus, Berlin, Caen, Stockholm and Vienna. An interactive exchange of the applied methods is ensured by individual working visits and a special workshop to be organised in early 2002.

 

Project L4 : Common tools and multi-coincidence detectors

 

The main objectives of this project concern the transfer of detector know-how, an inventory of state-of-the-art detectors and an optimised development of future detectors and common tools.

A major activity has been the evaluation of a detector questionnaire and the maintenance and actualisation of the detector web page. In addition to the information about various types of detectors many links to other sources and industry have been included. Actually, the question of including ion traps on this web page is discussed, as ion traps may require specific detection systems depending on the trap geometry.

During the Heraklion meeting a workshop on detectors was organised, where scientists from inside and outside the network as well as from industry presented the most recent developments in the detector field. The presentation included systems such as channelplate detectors, multi-anode systems, extended crossed wire anodes, CCD-cameras, Dali-type detectors and detectors for measuring electron statistics. The given information will be summarised in a detector report.

 

 

Project L5: Ion beam production

 

Within this project two conferences have been organised in 2001. The first one, which was held in Giessen, concerned the working horse of ion sources for low-energy accelerators, the so-called ECR-ion sources, the second one, held in Aarhus, dealt with ion sources in general, in particular those for producing more complex ions. In both cases experts from the field of ion source development participated in the meetings. The presentations are documented in the LEIF-reports 5 and 6, which have been widely distributed and which are still available upon request by the organisers.

Within this project several collaborations have been initiated with the aim to develop similar types of ion sources, for example all-permanent magnet ECR ion sources, or to follow new concepts like that of the proposed micro-plasma source, which is expected to create also cold molecular ions. In general, the aspect of controlling and changing the internal energy of complex ions (clusters, biomolecules, fullerenes,...) is an important part of the future activities in this project. Several test experiments are planned for 2002.

 

 

Project L6: Beam control and deceleration

 

An essential objective of this project is the production of ion beams at very low kinetic energies, which means eV energies and lower. Particularly for highly charged ions this objective promises to open up new fields that may result in a large variety of important applications. Therefore, a large part of the workshop ‘Production, handling and characterisation of low-energy ion beams’, which was organised in Heraklion, has been devoted to this subject. Different approaches and techniques to arrive at this energy regime have been compared and showed very positive perspectives. These techniques included different electrostatic deceleration methods, the use of octopole guides as well as the use of ion traps in different forms.

The progress that has been made in preparing electronically ‘clean’ ion beams, either of ions in their electronic ground state or in a specific metastable excited state, has been discussed as well. The proposed methods are based on the double translational energy spectroscopy technique or on the application of traps and storage rings.

A seminar on the physics of very low energy ions and the corresponding techniques has been proposed for the period 2002.

 


III)           Other activities

 

NMB-meeting

 

The meeting of the network management board (NMB) took place on the first evening. The points of discussion are listed in the annex d. General information on the LEIF-network as well as aspects concerning the creation of a distributed facility were discussed. In this context a list of the actual users of the LEIF infrastructures has been established showing that about 100 scientists are using the LEIF- installations. The list will be completed by potential users.

Furthermore, the creation of a quality referential, the role of the initiated quality club,

and aspects of the beam time distribution were the subject of discussion. During a test phase, a small committee consisting of 3 scientists (Prof. J. Ullrich (MPI - Heidelberg), Prof. H. Winter (Humboldt Universität Berlin) and the LEIF-coordinator) has been proposed to judge centralised beam time demands.

Concerning the 3rd Annual meeting in 2002 two possibilities were discussed: to organise this meeting in Caen just before the HCI at the end of August, or to hold a separate meeting in Innsbruck at the beginning of July. Due to the fact that many conferences will take place in the period from August to September, the second proposition seems to be more favourable.

 

Posters and oral talks

 

Numerous user projects were presented either orally (17 talks) or in the form of posters during the evening session (34 posters). These presentations are a proof of the exciting physics which is performed at the LEIF infrastructures, either in collisions of ions with ions, with atoms, molecules, clusters, surfaces and capillaries, or linked to the development of high performance instrumentation.

As was already ‘usus’ in the first annual meeting several experts have been invited who presented in stimulating talks the actual research in fields close to the terrain of ion collisions. These subjects concerned either the physics of clusters in strong fields or their manipulation in traps, or the production of ions in plasmas due to laser-surface interactions. Further themes which interest at present many scientists of our community concern the radiation damage to the DNA, precision mass measurements with the aim to test QED theory, or the actual performance and possibilities of EBIT devices.

 

Workshops

 

The two workshops that were organised during the last day of the meeting gave us an excellent opportunity to learn about the latest developments in the field of multi-coincidence detectors and the techniques to handle and create low energy ion beams. Due to the invited experts a rather complete overview on both subjects could be obtained.

During this meeting no specific activity of the young scientist forum was organised. However, it has been proposed that during the next annual meeting a separate session should be organised by our ‘young colleagues’ where in short oral contributions each one should present an actual project.
