Beam transport system and method, accelerator including beam transport system, and ion source including the accelerator

Abstract

A beam transport system for transporting a charged particle beam, includes a magnetic field generation device that is provided in a transport line that transports the charged particle beam and generates a magnetic field parallel to a center orbit of the charged particle beam, and a beam shielding device that is provided in a region through which the charged particle beam in the magnetic field generation device passes, causes a charged particle beam in a predetermined range of the charged particle beam to pass through, and stops other charged particle beams.
