ABSTRACT:
A charged particle beam irradiation system comprises a high-speed steerer (beam dump device)100disposed in a course of a beam transport line4through which an ion beam is extracted from a charged-particle beam generator1. The beam dump device100is provided with dose monitoring devices105, 106for measuring a dose of an ion beam applied to a beam dump104so that the intensity of the ion beam can be measured without transporting the ion beam to irradiation nozzles15A through15D. Thus, the system is capable of adjusting the intensity of an ion beam extracted from a synchrotron without operating each component of a beam transport line, and an irradiation nozzle.
