The design of the 300 MeV proton microprobe system in Harbin

Abstract

In Harbin, a 300 MeV proton microprobe system is under development for many applications in space science studies including upset studies in microelectronic devices, radiation hardness of materials for satellites and radiation effects in human tissues. The microprobe system, as a component of Space Environment Simulation Research Infrastructure (SESRI), will employ a purpose-built synchrotron to provide the proton beam. Our design goal for the 300 MeV proton microprobe is for energy spread 0.1%, emittance 10π mm mrad, intensity 109 per pulse and a probe size of 10 μm. A magnetic quadrupole lens system will be used to focus the microprobe with a demagnification of 50. This paper presents a sy..
