Popis:	A 50 keV proton injector utilizing a dc microwave source has been used to operate a 1.25 MeV continuous wave (cw) radio-frequency quadrupole (RFQ) accelerator. RFQ injection places stringent requirements on beam properties including centroid control, emittance, and phase-space matching. The ion source chosen for these applications is based on a microwave discharge operating at 2.45 GHz with an on-axis magnetic field near 875 G. The injector employs a space-charge-neutralized, two-solenoid-lens, low-energy beam transport (LEBT) system. Proton injector development with a 1.25 MeV RFQ has resulted in meeting the RFQ 75 mA design current specification in cw mode. Details of the ion source and LEBT operation are presented, and simulations for ion beam extraction and transport are compared with the injector measurements. The proton injector has been converted to 75 keV beam operation for injecting into a 6.7 MeV cw RFQ.
