  The high-frequency systems for the RIKEN Ring Cyclotron (RRC) was upgraded in order to increase the acceleration voltage at 18.25 MHz operation by remodeling its cavity resonators and rf controllers. As a result, the maximum gap voltage at 18.25 MHz improved from about 80 kV to more than 150 kV. The beam intensity of 238U for the RI Beam Factory was increased up to 117 pnA in the fiscal 2020 by overcoming the beam intensity limitation of RRC due to the space charge effect. In this talk, I will present the details of upgrade as well as the current status of high-frequency systems for the RRC.

Hadron therapy offers superior dose conformity in the treatment of deep-seated tumors compared with conventional X-ray therapy due to its Bragg-peak feature of energy deposition in organs. Heavy ion medical machine (HIMM) was constructed on the basis of the experience gained from the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou-Cooler Storage Ring (HIRFL-CSR) project. The facility consists of an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source, a cyclotron injector, a compact synchrotron ring, and 5 nozzles. The C5+ beam generated by the ECR ion source is pre-accelerated by the cyclotron to 6.2 MeV/u and then injected into the synchrotron using the charge exchange injection method. The injected beam is accelerated from 6.2 MeV/u to an extraction energy ranging from 120 to 400 MeV/u. This paper introduced the characteristics of HIMM and its development in China.
