Development of a miniature Penning ion source for well logging
A miniature Penning ion source including a φ 10 mm anode cup inside
used for small well logging neutron tube
was developed. Both electromagnetic field and geometry of the ion source were designed reasonably. The test results show that the source has good current stabilization
high neutron yield and good performance. So it can meet the need of a small well logging neutron tube.
