Abstract:		An electron cyclotron resonance ion source has been utilized to produce mercury beams with intensities of 4.5 emuA of (202)Hg(29+) and 3.0 emuA of (202)Hg(31+) from natural abundance mercury metal. The production technique relies on the evaporation of liquid mercury into the source plasma vacuum region and utilizes elemental mercury instead of a volatile organic compound as the neutral feed material
