Preliminary Results of the Beam Control and Detection of the KIRAMS Electron Microbeam System

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The Korea Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences (KIRAMS) electron microbeam system has been built with its prototype components. The system is composed of an electron gun, a beam transport chamber, and a cell image acquisition and positioning stage. Each component has been upgraded through repetitive performance tests for various parametric arrangements. This paper presents the preliminary results of the performance test on the beam control and detection parts of the system.
