Description
Summary:The KHIMA (Korea Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator) had developed the KIRAMS-30 cyclotron in collaboration with the ARTI (Advanced Radiation Technology Institute). This cyclotron is able to accelerate proton for the mass production of radioisotopes. It is designed to use two normal conduct RF cavities. The resonant frequency of the ion is 15.99 MHz because of the magnet design and the beam dynamics. The RF frequency is 63.96 MHz because of the 4 th harmonic number. By using computer simulation codes, we estimated the principle design parameters of the RF system, we simulated the electric field distribution. In this paper, we present the design features, the results of quality assessment tests for the RF system, and important issues taken into consideration when designing such a cyclotron.
