Abstract
At the China Institute of Atomic Energy, a central region model cyclotron has been constructed, which is dedicated for various experimental verifications to study beam properties. The design features of the ion source and injection line have already been described in other papers. We shall report here the results of the initial beam tests. A wire scanner is employed in the injection line to measure beam transverse sizes and these data can be used to fit the phase plane parameters after the ion source. Based on the beam tests results, the ion source built in 2003 has been improved recently. The improvement is mainly due to the repair of the multicusp field. From the ion source to the exit of the inflector, a transmission efficiency of 93% has been obtained for a continuous and low current input beam. It is also described here the experimental arrangement and the results.
