  A test of the acceleration of multiple charge-state uranium beams was
performed at the ATLAS accelerator. A 238U+26 beam was accelerated in the ATLAS
PII linac to 286 MeV (~1.2 MeV/u) and stripped in a carbon foil located 0.5 m
from the entrance of the ATLAS Booster section. A 58Ni9+ 'guide' beam from the
tandem injector was used to tune the Booster for 238U+38. All charge states
from the stripping were injected into the booster and accelerated. Up to 94% of
the beam was accelerated through the Booster linac, with losses mostly in the
lower charge states. The measured beam properties of each charge state and a
comparison to numerical simulations are reported in this paper.
