1. Primary beam attenuation factor Fp

Primary beam attentuation factor 'Fp' has been calculated for one case:

- 33keV Sodium beam;

- The beam injects at -5 radial and -2 toroidal degrees referenced to the present beamline coordinate. Which

means the beam injects towards the exit port.

- Only electron impact ionization process for Na+ to Na++ was counted;

- Ionization cross-section calculation was from prof. Crowley's Matlab code;

- Standard plasma discharge where Ip=300kA;

- Plasma temperature and density datas from Biewer and Lanier's plots with necessary interpolations.

2. One trajectory example

- The beam injects at -5 radial and -2 toroidal degrees referenced to the present beamline coordinate.

- This trajectory is the same as above

- The secondary ion beam's path length ~ 0.6m

3. Sample volume shape and sizes

- The beam injects at -5 radial and -2 toroidal degrees referenced to the present beamline coordinate.

- The beam size is ~ 0.5cm O.D.

- Calculations have been done for the center and bottom entrance slits at current position

- No secondary sweep is included

- Entrance slits' width have been set to 2mm, 4mm, 6mm, respectively

Center slit: 2mm openning

Center slit: 4mm openning

Center slit: 6mm openning

Bottom slit: 2mm openning

Bottom slit: 4mm openning

Bottom slit: 6mm openning

Notice: The small sample volume size (~ 0.1cm thickness) may be caused by the distant entrance slits.
