Description
The RFT-30 cyclotron at the Advanced Radiation Technology Institute (ARTI) of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) is a multipurpose proton cyclotron, which is particularly utilized for the production of medical radioisotopes. In radioisotope production, the reaction cross-section, which is strongly dependent on the proton energy and target material, critically influences the production yield. Therefore, precisely monitoring the beam energy during irradiation is considered one of the most important factors.
This presentation introduces the implementation and optimization of a non-destructive capacitive pick-up monitor for the RFT-30 cyclotron, designed to determine the beam energy from the time-of-flight (TOF) of beam bunches. The proposed non-interceptive diagnostic system is expected to enable continuous, real-time TOF-based beam-energy monitoring during irradiation without interrupting routine radioisotope production.
