Abstract
Design work on the proposed K=800, KF= 400, superconducting cyclotron at MSU has progressed to the point where overall machine characteristics are firmly established. The main purpose1 of the machine is to serve as a booster for the K=500 cyclotron, now under construction. In this respect, let us recall that the design goal is to achieve maximum beam energies of 200 MeV/n for fully stripped light ions, and typically 30-40 MeV/n for heavy ions like uranium. Energy variability down to about 50 MeV/n and 4-5 MeV/n, again for light and heavy ions respectively, is also required to ensure some overlap with beam energies delivered by the K = 500 in stand-alone mode.Keywords
