We have been engaged in the production of cyclotrons for many years. PET (Positron Emission Tomography), which has now become the core business of our company, is one of the technological applications using the cyclotron. This report introduces a large-scale cyclotron system currently being built at RIKEN, and describes an RF acceleration system for the intermediate ring cyclotron. The RF acceleration system consists of a resonator (acceleration cavity), which accelerates ions, an amplifier, which supplies electric power to the resonator, and an RF control system, which controls the voltage and phase of the resonator. The report also introduces an overview of these components.
