Description

Methods for medical isotope production using electron liner accelerator have been investigated in past studies. The accelerators used for medical isotope production increasingly demand high-power electron beams. In this article we present the physical design of a compact superconducting accelerator capable of providing a high average current electron beam with a current of 10 mA and an energy of 40 MeV for medical isotope production. We focused on performing beam dynamics simulations and optimizing the beam parameters at the exit of the accelerator by Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm. The accelerator employs a Nb3Sn superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavity to achieve high average beam power and utilizes a cryocooler conduction-cooling technique for efficient operation.
