  • Abstract
    IBA´s proton therapy cyclotron (C235) has produced extracted 235 MeV proton beams and has fulfilled its factory tests. Model calculations have played an important role all along the course of this project: 2D and 3D magnetic fields, closed orbit analyses, particle trackings, beam transport layouts… . These calculations and the corresponding tools are evaluated by a comparison to experiment
