Proposal for a high frequency of cyclotron DC-72 CCSR

Two half-wave RF systems with vertical resonators tanks located in a yoke of a magnet will be used for acceleration of charged particles in range from H- to Xe⁺¹8 with energy 72^- 2 MeV/u. The range of frequency from 18.25 MHz up to 32 MHz is provided by changing of the length of resonators. The calculated quality-factor of RF system is equal from 5000 to 6000. At a voltage rating of 60 kV on two dees it is necessary to use the HF generator with an output power about 25 kW. The basic parameters of a HF system of a cyclotron DC - 72 are shown in the given article. The results are obtained on the basis of numerical calculations conducted with the software package POISSON SUPERFISH and MicroCap and they were checked by the series of measurements using the cyclotron built in Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. Measurements of the resonance system confirm the correctness of the new calculation methods and procedures for designing and optimizing various parts of HF circuits used in accelerators technology. By using of these methods it is possible to create a complete model of the entire accelerator HF system. The HF system consists of power generator, transmission lines, resonant system and monitoring and controlling system. (Author)
