Abstract

RF system is known as one of the most vital parts to produce the efficient accelerator system [1]. In this paper, the RF system and cavity of 10 MeV AVF (Azimuthally Varying Field) Cyclotron for radioisotope production are designed. The Cyclotron works on 4th harmonic with Dee's voltage of 50 KV. In order to supply the expected accelerating voltages RF power coupling and RF tuner has been considered. The RF system is simulated using commercially available simulator, CST Microwave Studio code. In contrast the geometry of cavity is optimized to achieve suitable Q value in desired frequency. Since the factors are non-ideal during the fabrication process, the actual Q value of cavities is estimated.
