- Design of electron cooling systems for TWAC (ITEP) and LSR (Kyoto University), testing of their elements.
Design of the prototype optics profilometer for the proton beam of Nuclotron (JINR) and COSY (FZJ).
Theoretical and experimental investigation on ion sources:
- Calculation and design of ion source elements and ion and electron transportation lines.
- Design of the laser based material loader for the ECR source.
- Design of the ion source X-ray diagnostics.
- Elaboration of the code libraries for simulations of processes in ion sources and transporation channels.
Creation of LEPTA:
