摘要

A new experimental area for the investigation of ion beam matter interaction and ion beam plasma interaction was completed at the Institute of Modern Physics (Lanzhou, China). We report the details of this low-energy setup and first results on ion beam matter interaction, where we measured the charge state of O5+ ions at 1 MeV passing through a hydrogen gas target. The data were compared with the Monte-Carlo simulation results for cold hydrogen gas and hydrogen plasma.
