Description

A 70 MeV commercial H- cyclotron system will be used to employ an Isotope Separation On-Line (ISOL) method for the Rare Isotope Science Project (RISP) in Korea. We made a contract with IBA in 2019 for the cyclotron system, and its installation will begin in October 2021. The cyclotron is capable of providing a beam with a current of up to 0.75 mA and has two ports for beam extraction. The beam line optics to ISOL targets was designed by IBA to fit into existing building. A wobbler magnet is used to make the beam intensity uniform with a diameter between 2 cm and 5 cm. The beam diagnostics and collimation system is critical to keep the high-current beam stable during irradiation of the ISOL target. The beam line design will be presented along with the progress in preparing for installation and the system production by IBA. In addition, the building has spare rooms to accommodate such as medical isotope production in a way to fully utilize the facility.
