Abstract

Superconducting cyclotron SC200 will provide acceleration of protons up to 200 MeV with maximum beam current of 1 µA. We plan to manufacture in China two cyclotrons: one will operate in Hefei cyclotron medical center the other will replace Phasotron in Medico-technical Center JINR Dubna and will be used for cancer therapy by protons. Now we present results of simulation of magnetic, acceleratiion and extraction systems.
