| 英文摘要 | The cyclotron facilities at iThemba LABS have been utilized for isotope production, nuclear physics research, proton therapy and neutron therapy for nearly 25 years. The upgrading and replacing of redundant systems is essential, in order to keep the interruptions due to equipment failure to a minimum. The computer control system will be replaced by an Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) and the analogue lowlevel RF control systems will be replaced with digital systems. The Minimafios ECR ion source is being replaced with an ECR source that was used at the former Hahn Meitner Institute. Another source, based on the design of the Grenoble test source, will be commissioned later this year. To increase the production of radioisotopes, the 66 MeV proton beam is split with an electrostatic channel to deliver two beams simultaneously. The first results with the beam splitter will be reported. A phase measuring system for the separated-sector cyclotron, comprising 21 fixed probes, has been installed. The progress of these projects and the status of the facilities will be presented. Plans for new facilities for proton therapy and radioactive beams will also be discussed. |
