  A 3rd harmonic Flat-top acceleration system for the K800 Superconducting Cyclotron of the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS) was designed to reduce the energy spread of the accelerated particles and to improve the beam quality and the extraction efficiency. The Flat-top effect is realized by the superposition of the 3rd harmonic to the fundamental acceleration frequency. The 3rd harmonic frequency is produced by an additional resonator, capacitively coupled to the K 800 cavities. The Flat-top cavity was designed with the 3D electromagnetic codes Ansoft HFSS and CST MicroWaveStudio.

  A code that allows us to design the spiral inflector and the central region of the SCENT cyclotron was implemented. The code integrates the main equations of motion of a particle in an electromagnetic field and provides an useful interface to describe the geometry and the physical constraints of the inflector and the central region to be simulated. The mechanical drawings of the inflector and the central region is made using a standard CAD. These drawings are then imported in OPERA 3D to produce the maps of the electric and magnetic field. An application interface allows us to enter the emittance and the particles’ distributions to be transported through the inflector. An iterative process to design the central region was also developed and tested.
