Description

The Korea Multi-purpose Accelerator Complex (KOMAC) in Gyeongju, currently operates a 100 MeV high-current proton linear accelerator. This facility actively supports a wide range of applications, including semiconductor radiation testing and fundamental scientific research. Recently, a upgrade plan has been initiated to upgrade the maximum beam energy to 200 MeV to meet increasing user demands.

Following the energy upgrade, the implementation of new target rooms and dedicated beam transport lines is essential. The current expansion plan includes two distinct target rooms: one optimized for terrestrial radiation test and the other specialized for space radiation test. This study presents the beam optics of the transport lines required to deliver the 200 MeV proton beams while satisfying the specific beam parameters requested by each target room.
