Abstract
HIMM, a new compact accelerator facility dedicated to carbon cancer therapy, has been designed and is presently under construction. The synchrotron has a compact structure that exhibits a circumference of only 56.2 m. The charge exchange injection (CEI) method is adopted for synchrotron injection with a carbon-ion energy of 7 MeV/u. The third-order resonance and RF-Knock Out scheme are adopted in this machine. The general design of the machine and injection/extraction simulation results is discussed in this paper.
