Abstract: Experimental studies on simultaneous acceleration of O+ and O- beams have been carried out in a 26MHz integrated SPlit Ring (ISR) RFQ at Peking University. Both O+ and O- beams can be accelerated to more than 300keV. Output macro-pulse of O+ and O- was gotten simultaneously at the exit of RFQ when O+ and O- beams were inputted into the RFQ cavity at the same time. The output micro-pulse beams Of O+ and O- were measured with a fast target after O+ and O- beams were accelerated simultaneously in the RFQ. The frequency of micro-pulse is as same as the RF frequency applied to RFQ. The phase difference of O+ and O- micro-pulse is n that coincides with the anticipated results. The beam current gotten from simultaneous acceleration of O+ and O- beams are much stronger than that gotten from acceleration of O+ or O- only.
