摘要
A microchannel plate (MCP) is used as an ion detector in the end-loss energy component analyzer, which has been developed in order to measure velocity distribution functions of end-loss ions in the tandem mirror GAMMA10. The gain of the MCP depends on variable parameters of the incident ion energy, the incident ion current density, and the MCP bias voltage. The gain characteristics was obtained using a hydrogen beam test stand, and the gain curves were described as a function of the parameters for the purpose of the quantitative evaluation of end-loss ions.
