Objective The extremely high charge, exotic particles, and high beam intensity that becomes available at the new FAIR facility will allow studies of non-linear effects in insulator irradiation with charged particles. This is the subject of a combined effort of physicists from Sweden, Russia, Germany and Netherlands. We propose to investigate the transmission and guiding of ions through capillaries of different forms (flat, cylindrical and conic) created in different materials (carbon, AlO3, glas, and plastic). These experiments will be in the forefront of the future experiments planed to be performed with low-energy extremely high-charged ions and anti-protons at the FAIR/FLAIR facility. One interesting result of the proposed research could be a non-electromagnetic lens for an ion beam of submicron size. The realisation of such an instrument is of importance for developing new ion focusing elements for injection into traps or for surface investigation methods.
