Axial injection configuration accelerates beams in superconducting cyclotron, suggesting improved performance.
The Superconducting Cyclotron has started working in the axial injection mode.Until September 1999 it worked as a booster of the Tandem, and the beam was radially injected in the median plane. Now the beam is produced by an ECR source and injected along the axis. Therefore, the Cyclotron has been provided with an inflector and a central region. The design calculations are here presented. The pieces of the axial equipment are shown as manufactured by the company.The inflector and the central region were assembled in December 1999. In January 2000, the first beam in the new mode has been injected, accelerated and extracted.
