Abstract

The irradiation of carbon ion beam cancer is very effective and successful treatment as was demonstrated at NIRS (Chibo) and other laboratories [1]. The scattering ion on the way to irradiation point so huge that initial small momentum spread and emitances cooled ion beam looks luxuries that really not necessary. At this article discussed way cooling can made this facility cheaper and more reliable. At this year started project this facility for the company IREN P.R. China. At report made short introduction acceleration aspects of this project development at BINP (Novosibirsk).
