Design of the central region in the Gustaf Werner cyclotron at the Uppsala university

This paper describes the design of the central region in the Gustaf Werner cyclotron for h = 1, 2 and 3 modes of acceleration. The electric field distribution in the inflector and in the four acceleration gaps has been numerically calculated from an electric potential map produced by the program RELAX3D. The geometry of the central region has been tested with the computations of orbits carried out by means of the computer code CYCLONE. The optical properties of the spiral inflector and the central region were studied by using the programs CASINO and CYCLONE, respectively. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
