Important design issues of a high efficiency cyclotron complex to drive the Energy Amplifier

Conference Papers

Abstract

"A high efficiency three-stage cyclotron has been proposed [1] to provide a 10 MW proton beam in the 1 GeV kinetic energy range for driving the Energy Amplifier. This accelerator complex consists of the following chain: two 15 MeV compact isochronous caylotrons (CIC) feeding a four separated sector ring cyclotron (ISSC) raising the energy up to 120 MeV. A final stage made of ten spiral separated sectors boosts the enrgy in the 1 GeV range. This paper presents some design issues. [1] N. Fiétier and P.

Cyclotron

A cyclotron is a type of particle accelerator invented by Ernest Lawrence in 1929–1930 at the University of California, Berkeley, and patented in 1932. A cyclotron accelerates charged particles outwards from the center of a flat cylindrical vacuum chamber along a spiral path. The particles are held to a spiral trajectory by a static magnetic field and accelerated by a rapidly varying electric field. Lawrence was awarded the 1939 Nobel Prize in Physics for this invention. The cyclotron was the first "cyclical" accelerator.

Particle accelerator

A particle accelerator is a machine that uses electromagnetic fields to propel charged particles to very high speeds and energies, and to contain them in well-defined beams. Large accelerators are used for fundamental research in particle physics. The largest accelerator currently active is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) near Geneva, Switzerland, operated by the CERN. It is a collider accelerator, which can accelerate two beams of protons to an energy of 6.5 TeV and cause them to collide head-on, creating center-of-mass energies of 13 TeV.

Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance

Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry is a type of mass analyzer (or mass spectrometer) for determining the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of ions based on the cyclotron frequency of the ions in a fixed magnetic field. The ions are trapped in a Penning trap (a magnetic field with electric trapping plates), where they are excited (at their resonant cyclotron frequencies) to a larger cyclotron radius by an oscillating electric field orthogonal to the magnetic field.
