This work is built upon first principles through a theoretical understanding of the processes inside the ion source coupled with advanced thermo-mechanical, electrical, and Particle-In-Cell simulations of ion sources, validated by experimental tests. Two new hot-cavity ion sources developed by INFN and SCK CEN are benchmarked against the state-of-the-art ion source from CERN using their offline front end and mass separator. The new developments show promising features that will be further explored in subsequent research. Additional developments on other sources, such as the forced electron beam induced arc discharge (FEBIAD) are presented for completeness of the ongoing activities.}, language = {en}, urldate = {2025-09-24}, author = {Cocolios, Thomas Elias}, collaborator = {Mancheva, Ralitsa and Ballan, Michele and Khwairakpam, Omorjit Singh and Scarpa, Daniele and Voltan, Giacomo and Rijpstra, Kim and Quanjel, Lennert and Manzolaro, Mattia and Rothe, Sebastian}, month = jul, year = {2025}, note = {Publisher: Zenodo Version Number: 1.0}, keywords = {deliverable, ion source, medical radionuclides, radioactive ion beam}, }
