Abstract

In order to adequately eliminate 1st harmonic in the magnetic field of the compact cyclotron, CIAE has developed a 1st harmonic shimming method that can be applied to the four-sector compact cyclotron. The amplitude of the 1st harmonic can be reduced by adjusting the azimuthal width of the shimming bars at both sides of the sector in this method. Based on the beam dynamics requirement on the amplitude of 1st harmonic, the principle of 1st harmonic shimming method is illustrated through numerical analysis, and meanwhile, the shimming has been implemented on the magnet of CYCIAE-CRM by processing the azimuthal width using NC milling machining. The shimming result shows that it satisfies the requirement of beam dynamics. The shimming effect using this method is also analyzed and expounded in detail. The extension of this method is conducted so that it can be used to shim β θ at the median plane induced by the installation error of the upper and lower sector poles.
