Description

Modeling of the beam extraction from C235-cyclotron (IBA, Belgium) is considered. The results of the optimization of extraction system parameters are given. The obtained theoretical results are in a good agreement with experimental data obtained during launching one of the C235-cyclotrons. Parameters of the improved geometry of the electrostatic deflector are obtained. Use of new version of the deflector leads to essential increase of the total extraction efficiency of the cyclotron
