THE C70 ARRONAX AND BEAM LINES STATUS
Résumé
The C70 ARRONAX is a high intensity (up to 2x375uA) multi-particle cyclotron aiming at R&D on material and radiolysis and production of radioisotopes. It began its hands-on phase in December 2010, and is currently undergoing beam lines' modification in experimental halls for present and future experiments. Characterisation of the beams at the end of beamlines is of particular importance to determine the capacity of the cyclotron for end-line experimental users. A program of beam characterisation is being performed based in one hand on dedicated diagnostics e.g. beam profilers, faraday cups, alumina foils and in the other hand on a series of Geant4 beam simulations. The out coming results of the measurements, along with the simulations, are detailed in this report for proton and alpha particle beams, as well as the future prospects of the characterisation program.
