MIST-2, a new multicusp H2+ ion source, achieved about 7 mA total current in first tests, doubling MIST-1's output, but its H2+ fraction is only estimated at about 60%.
In a multicusp ion source, the plasma electrons and ions are confined in a magnetic field produced by perma- nent magnet bars arranged in an alternating configura- tion (cf

The MIST-1 and MIST-2 multicusp ion sources for high-current H$_2^+$ beams
MIST-2, a new multicusp H2+ ion source, achieved about 7 mA total current in first tests, doubling MIST-1's output, but its H2+ fraction is only estimated at about 60%.
