A STUDY ON THE DETERMINATION OF THE BEAM CHARACTERISTICS OF R&D BEAM TRANSPORT LINE OF TURKISH ATOMIC ENERGY AUTHORITY PROTON ACCELERATOR FACILITY BY USING QUADRUPOLE VARIATION METHOD

Abstract

Main policy of TAEA is to enhance the use of products of nuclear technology by applying it for the utmost benefits of Turkey. As moving from this goal, TAEA PAF was established at Sarayköy Nuclear Research and Training Center in 2012 in order to produce, quality control and patient dose distribution of currently imported radioisotopes and their radiopharmaceuticals which are used for diagnosis purpose for nuclear medicine in Turkey. By the commissioning of TAEA-PAF, an infrastructure for accelerator technology with an multi-purpose facility that is designed for radioisotope and radiopharmaceutical production, quality control and research and development studies established in Turkey for the first time. Thus, some studies based on charged particle applications on material science, nuclear physics, industry and also training regarding accelerators technologies are projected in TAEA-PAF also. In accordance with these objectives, the studies have been started at TAEA-PAF to build required infrastructure in order to service for proton based application requests of universities and institutes in our country. The first part of the study; it is explained that the arrangements on the existing Beamline 1.1 in the TAEA PAF R&D irradiation vault to make it possible to measure the proton beam parameters such as beam spot, emittance, current and energy. In the second part, the results on the determination of the emittance value of the proton beam in the existing R&D Beamline 1.1 by the quadrupole variation method are presented.
