Abstract
An improved magnetic beam extraction channel for the Oak Ridge Isochronous Cyclotron (ORIC) has been designed to significantly reduce the external field disturbance and provide uniform in-channel field. This will make beam extraction near ν <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">r</sub> = 1 more predictable. The new channel consists of an iron tube of constant cross section with independently adjustable windings, both inside and outside the iron. The windings have a cos <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">θ</sub> current density distribution. The iron tube is 1 meter long with a bore of 6 cm; aperture for beam is 4 cm. The external field is negligible except for small perturbations in the field arising from the geometry modifications required at the ends so that the beam can enter and leave. The field reduction inside the channel is variable from 0.4 to 0.6 Tesla without significant change in either the internal field uniformity or the external field level.
