Scanning Magnet - KIRAMS Radiation Therapy Beam Scanning Electromagnet

Bending Magnet

This bending magnet is an electromagnet that applies the principle by which a charged-particle beam passing through a magnetic field is deflected by the Lorentz force, and it is used in particle accelerator beamlines to redirect the beam along a desired angle. The effective field length and field uniformity are key design factors that determine how precisely the beam is bent.

Below are the specifications of the bending magnet installed at KIRAMS (Korea Institute of Radiological & Medical Sciences).
