This is the MEFISTO laboratory with the ECR-Source on the right hand side and on the left hand side the vacuum chamber where all the instruments for calibration are located The ECR-Source is placed in a big Faraday cage of about 2m length, 1.5m width and 2m height. This cage allows to float the ion source up to a potential of 100kV for post-accelerating of the highly charged ions.
