摘要
A compact facility for cancer therapy has been designed and is presently under construction. A slow beam extraction system using the RF-Knock Out method and 3rd-order resonance is adopted in the synchrotron of this facility. Eight sextupoles are used, four of them are for correcting the chromaticity and the rest for driving the 3rd-order resonance. In order to save the aperture of vacuum chamber, a 3-magnet bump is adopted during the extraction process. The extraction phase space map and the last 3 turns’ particle trajectory before extraction are given. The matching betatron functions with HEBT （high energy beam transport） are also presented.
